Subject: I've written off my bike today Riding up to a junction in the rain this morning, looked up to see a mini van start to pull away ahead of me. Looked down, looked up the minivan had not pulled away and I'm all over the back of it. Totally my fault, stupid mistake. My aerobars smashed a light and dented the liftgate on the van. And I bent the frame of my Synapse in 2 places. Now I will have a bill, yet to be decided, to fix the van. The $1800 for the bike, plus my medical bills to get my arm stitched up, managed to nick an artery, my luck was really out, plus X rays etc. So my question is does anyone have experience of this? Do you think my household insurence would cover it? Otherwise I will be left looking at the pictures of other bikes....... |
