What Raven said. Welcome to TE!
That embarrassed response is quite normal, I get it sometimes, feels like the most important thing is to get back on your feet and say "I'm fine!!"Just one way of handling the fear and adrenaline.

Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin

Thanks!
Thanks to all of you for your support and kinds words. I'm getting over my first encounter with a car and consider myself fortunate that I wasn't badly hurt. I'm looking forward to participating in the other parts of the forum. It seems like a great place.

Karen---so glad you're OK. And this is sorta off-topic, but what's the deal with the chicken???? Is it real or somebody in a wonderful disguise? It makes me smile.
Tis better to wear out than to rust out....

Thanks for the site! My in-laws own chickens and never want for anything. Maybe we should get those for the next gift giving event?

LOL! I grew up on a chicken farm. 6000 laying hens. It never occured to us to put clothes on them
. "Dress" them for dinner, yes, but that actually means pretty much the opposite. 
Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

My in-laws only have 6 hens. I kid you not, my husband's stepmom has been sitting in her recliner rocking a chicken. It was disturbing. They all have names as well.
