Keep it safe out there fellas. I was hit by a Mustang from behind this morning just east of Bloomington. I was on my 19 pound bike so obviously I didn't come out on the winning end of things. I was going about 22 and he had to be going over 60. You could say that I was incredibly lucky because I have no broken bones. I just have a gash on my left elbow, a swollen right ankle, and a severely sore and swollen butt. I'm not sure if the butt is from hitting the car or from hitting the ground. I have major butt road rash too. I'll spare you the pictures of that but here are a couple of shots of my poor bike. Note the frame is broken in two places in the rear triangle. The rear wheel is mangled.
