whacked...

well it was more...thudded...

i was biking from work to the train station and got 'thudded' by a car...at least it was a low emission vehicle...a prius...

i was just thinking how lucky i've been to have not been hit in almost 10 months of biking in the city...so now i'm a little more experienced and I have to find out what do do when hit next time...there's just so many cars in such a small space it's a given it'll happen again...

but's it reminded me of how much i think cars are over used today...

the most stressful thing about the incident was another motorist yelling at me that i was the one at fault...i'm actually not sure who was at fault, but it was a good lesson that i need to learn what my rights are as a bicyclist in the city...

i'd love to live in a car free community, but i don't think any exist..

but i'll be looking...so the worst that could happen would be to get thudded by a golf cart maybe...or a kid on a big wheel....

OUCH!
