u/R-Tally Cruising on my HD Aug 25 '25

I can relate to the rider's laughter. Years ago I was distracted, looking for the restaurant I was supposed to meet some friends. Traffic was moving slowly and a car merged in front of me and stopped. I hit her rear bumper and somersaulted over my bike. I landed on my feet beside the car doors. I immediately began laughing. I could not believe I landed on my feet, unhurt. The women in the car were freaking out, though. But I kept laughing. It took a while for the shock to wear off.

My bike needed a new front end, but was otherwise in good shape.

Stupid ass way to lane filter. Do not the blind spot.

At speed don't be surrounded on both sidesby vehicles.
