    Default Got some new scuff marks on my boots, took a crash to get them though.

    Got taken out on my 09' by a red light turner. Was aproaching the intersection slowing for my red which then turned green, so keeping traffic flowing let off the brakes to start accelerating, only to find someone going for it trying to beat oncomming traffic and turn.

    Hit the brakes hoping to clear, hit the back end with my front right of the bike spun and kicked me off like a rookie cowboy. Went into just a perfect roll and popped back up, not a scratch ! On me that is my bike's gonna need some therapy. Thought I'd share.

    Waiting for claims guy to tow to the shop and rental car for transportation, been only bike rain or shine like 2.5 years. First accident.
