For as long as I've been driving, I've never been in a car accident, until today. But I must say it's probably the best one ever.
So I'm headed to my LBS to pick up my rebuilt rear shock for my Giant DH Team and to drop off a rim so they can build up a 24" wheel for me. But anyways, going through downtown about to hit the bridge to Lady's Island where I stopped at a traffic light behind about 5 cars. I look in my rearview mirror and see a minivan that ain't stopping. She hits me, with my XTC on the bike rack. I'm thinking "this chick is dead, she just demolished my bike!" but that wasn't the case. My pedal (Azonic flat pedal, don't remember the actual model) punched a dern hole in her hood, and her grill hit my spare tire. Only damage I recieved was a scratch or two on the pedal and a little tear on my spare tire cover. Her hood was annihilated. Made me laugh so hard as I was driving away after getting her info. Then I got my stuff taken care of. Great day for me.
