He was at a light and made sure the first car behind came to a full stop, which it did. However, as he anticipated and was focused on the light to change green, bam, he was down. The woman behind had turned to attend to one of her kids in the back seat and her foot slipped off the brake and on to the gas pedal. He's ok except for a nasty bruise on his leg where the handlebar pressed into his leg as he went down. He figures about $4k damage, but we'll see. At least it happened at the end of the season. Score one more for the cages, be safe!

 

Glad he was okay - he may have actually saved a child's life just by being there and keeping her car from rolling into traffic!

 

Sorry to hear about the accident but glad he wasn't hurt to badly.

 

Best of Luck to your buddy, Hope all is well.
Get a mouth piece

 

Best of luck to your buddy...

 

That could happen to any of us.he wasn't hurt to bad thats the main thing.bet he is sick about his bike but it can be fixed.

 

I think its time to test I.Q's before they test driving skills! Glad he's o.k.
New parts, new paint & a chance to change the bike a lil bit. Gotta look on the bright side some times!

Almost got hit like that by a woman digging in her purse for her cell phone. She shoved me almost into the intersection while I was steadily trying to find the horn button. I kept inching forward just off of her bumper for a good ten feet.

 

It's amazing that she wouldn't think to put it in park.

 

Send him our best and hope the bike gets a proper fixin.
