Luckily this is not a horror story (just a Bumper bashing), but had me quite shaken up at the time. No damage to me luckily, and the bike has some paint from the cars bumper on it.  ???

Happened this morning on the way to work. traffic at a standstill, me cruising next to it at about 20km/h. Car from opposite direction turns right to get to the petrol station and I unfortunately happened to be there just as he popped out from the traffic to make a break for freedom.......  :eek: I Managed a small last minute swerve, which I think saved my foot, but he still caught the rear swing arm of the bike with his car. Bike was knocked sideways, but I managed to stay on and get it under control preventing me from hitting another car on the side of the road.

Here is a pic where you can see where the car hit. Thank goodness it was not my foot, the left one is already F@rked from riding horses....
