    Did the perp stop and give her insurance info?

    Dam$! I'm sorry about your arm and your bike! I hope its just your arm. Did she stop and give her insurance info? Police come?

    Wow, Fredwina. I'm so sorry to hear what happened. What hospital are you at, or are you still there? I'm guessing there were other club people at the ride since Tom and Mary Lou have your bike, or did you call them?

    Do you have family and friends to help you through this?

    As often as I think of it, I pray for safety before a ride. This is a good reminder to THINK of it every time!

    Hope you heal quickly and are riding again soon. We'll miss you on the club rides.
    GO RIDE YOUR BIKE!!!

    I'm sorry that happened and hope your bones heal up quickly (and that the lady had plenty of insurance).
