Hey ya'll. First let me say I'm okay. A little sore, but okay. Thanks Josh for picking me up and getting me and the bike home.

I went for a wild ride today on my way home from work. The car in front of me was an unmarked cop car (Crown Vic, Black, tinted windows with blue lights) The car in front of him slows down, he slows down pretty quick, I'm getting on the brakes and thinking of moving into the turn lane....when BAM!!**%$*!! I get rear-ended by some punk kid that wasn't paying attention. The bike goes down on the right side and we slide for a good 20 feet. I get up ready to fight, but I don't want to give the cops any reason to put me in their crosshairs. Looking at the accident site, the car's skid marks were about 20 feet long, then their was my drag marks left by my fairing and saddle bag. The rear fender is smashed into the tire and the sub frame is bent. I had on steel toed work shoes and that saved my foot. My right calf has a small strawberry and feels a little bruised. My right palm and wrist are a little swollen and sore. As soon as I'm done eating I'm going to the hospital. I'm back from the hospital after 8 hours (8:35pm to 5:12am) with a bruised and sprained wrist in a brace. My guardian angel was definitely riding with me. I might have to drive a support vehicle to the Kentucky State Rally if I still go.

So sorry thathappened.. Did the kid get cited?  did the papramedics check you out at the scene? Waht did they find at the hospital. i have seen many people trying to go home after a crash  with bad injuries  trying to shake them off  only to later deal with a a compouned problem.  I got run off the road   I was wearing a kevlar shirt   So i didnt road rash   my ankle was mess up for months   even wearing boots 
I cracked my break nandle  and mirror   the  MF   drove off lauhing   I'll never forget his face  I couldnt get a mke on his car  I was concentrating  on an escape rout  not to hit an oncoming car  I was pissed for days
