Wow - what a story! I am SO sorry and so glad you were not more seriously injured. Sorry about the bike.
Out of curiosity, you said driver was up for a felony - was that hitting you guys or were there other circumstances (i.e., was she under the influence, on the lam, etc.)?

Hi Mary,
My heart goes out to you. I hope you mend quick. I'm so glad that the lady who hit was arrested and charged.

Glad you're alive, and hope you're not too badly hurt. You really are lucky-that was more than too close a call!
Hope she learns a lesson from this. At least it sounds like it's being taken seriously this time. When you're ready, tell us what happened. Until then, hugs.

Mary - scary, but I'm glad you're "basically" okay! I understand what you were saying. I rode for years and years on really crowded roads and did not get hit until I was living in a small town in a nice big bike lane on a not that busy road!
You just never know!

oh
Oh dear!
Mary, sorry to hear you're banged up. I hope you heal quickly & get back on a bike soon!
I sure hope the woman's learnt her lesson! I guess after paying a visit to court, she might!

Mary, you are one tough lady. Hope you and Linda both heal quickly!
So very sorry your Seven didn't make it. What a heartbreak. I'll light a candle for it tonight.

That's because the puppy has just been told s/he can pee on all of the drivers shoes. Originally Posted by Tuckervill
