My advice, having been there and done that, would be to contact an attorney.

That's awful Owlgirl, I'm glad you're okay. even if you're not in pain, it might help to take a couple ibuprofen or something - because you might be sore tomorrow.
I'm having a hard time visualizing what you're saying, but it doesn't sound like you were in the wrong - and if you think about it like there were two cars - whoever rear ends the car in front of them, it's pretty much always the fault of the rear ender regardless of what the rear endee did.
(((owlgirl))) I'm sorry about your wreck! I don't have any advice about what to do, but take care of yourself. I hope it all works out!

If he hit you in the back, he was not in control of his car. I am so glad you are ok, but I would agree with the others and have you contact a lawyer. The cost to replace your bike is small potatoes on his insurance.
