Funny (or not!)...but after I sent it, I realized that given my track record for crashes, you may have thought it was about me. Every morning when I arrive at work, my secretary asks me if I had a crash. Not funny! I told her that my first one was June 2nd and my second one was August 2nd - which means I am due for another one on October 2nd. I may stay off the bike that day!

No...maybe since he was on a public road, he was riding at an appropriate speed and some ding dong cut in front of him.

But, geez, P. Don't post anything labelled "serious accident." Cripe. I thought it was you, and I freaked out. It's horrible when someone gets hit - especially someone you know and work with. But, I have to admit...I breathed a sigh of relief when this was not a ride report for you!
