Run off the road

Leslie, how awful !!!

I'm very very glad you're OK.

I imagine you or the lady behind you had no chance to get a description of the vehicle. People like that should rot in he!! , pure & simple.

[Aint Doody]

Oh, Trekhawk, that makes me sooooo mad! It happened to me once, too, in town and the car had plenty of room. We all need to start trying to get those tag numbers, (which is ridiculous-who is thinking about that when we're trying to save our booties.) Somebody needs to come up with a helmet-camera to take pictures of these people..............

I nearly had a large brown delivery truck that shall remain unidentified do that to me last week. Sorry your encounter was closer than mine.

Trekhawk,

That's horrible!! Glad you were not hurt. People are just plain idiots!!

very glad to hear you're ok my friend. There is nothing scarier than having someone do that to you with no shoulder. Sounds like you have very fast reflexes and that you both made it thru ok! Angels were riding with you!!

[DeniseGoldberg]

Wow - what a bad nightmare you just lived through! I'm very glad to hear that you're OK, even though a bit shook up.

That driver's license should be yanked - too bad no one saw the license plate.

Glad you're okay. Awfully nice of the lady behind to stop and check on you. Reminds you that there ARE good people in this world too.

Glad you're ok Trekhawk. Sounds like you have some awesome bike skills too to come out ok. That's vehicular assault in my book, attempted murder

Reminds me on my Sunday ride we were I think in Fremont crossing on an overpass and ... don't you just hate it you're straddleing the line as folks going to the right of you are going onto the fwy entrance and folks to the left of you are continuing on the road and this big black SUV sidles up next to you and yells in your ear "you should be in the bike lane!" and then continues on the fwy?

Hate when that happens.

Just had to hope "well, I hope he does not have murder in him" because I'm kinda stuck in traffic between lanes and if I fall or am pushed over now it's a bad thing and was not the time to lecture him on "you blithering illiterate moron you should know the CA vehicular code is that bikes are traffic and I pay hwy. taxes too and just where is this bike lane that you speak of of eloquently?? get your sedentary 711 slurpy big gulp drinking butt outa the SUV and show me...."

But it was so nice of that lady to stop and check on you! That gives me hope. There are nice drivers out there. Glad you're ok.
