Becky is doing somewhat better today. She is sore and having road rash on your face is not fun, but we both know it could have been much worse.
I took her bike to the shop today. They said the front wheel is shot, and they are looking over the rest of the bike; frame alignment, fork/steerer tube/dropouts, shifters, handlebar, etc.
I've started dealing with the insurance companies. Strange at it sounds, I have to make a claim against *my* auto insurance for medical coverage because Michigan is a no-fault state. Somehow I have to make a claim against the at-fault driver to get the bike (and pain-and-suffering, lost wages, gear, etc?) covered. I'm sure this will be a joy. But at least we have someone to go after; it could have been a hit and run.
Do me a favor, wear your helmet...

My mom had to deal with the same thing when she got hit by a car in Canada. It was a mess because not only was it a "hit and run" but it happened in a different country. It was at least two years ago, and things are just getting settled now.
Anything replacements for Becky's bike should be carbon :-)
Glad Becky is ok....no fault state....WTF!! is up with that?
Peace
