Because I am the one who was hit, I'm saying it is the dude in the Buick's fault. But it is probably just as much mine as his.
Here's the story folks.
I am riding West on Grand getting ready to turn right onto John Q. Hammons Parkway. The cars are stopped at the light, so like every other day, I pass them on the right and make sure none of them are turning by checking for turn signals.
The light turns green as I am passing the last 2 cars in line.
Today, no one was planning on turning right. That is to say, legally. (No turn signals were used). The second car in line decides to turn as I am passing him. He proceeds to side-swipe me and drive off.
This incident leaves me with a nice bent pair of handlebars, an out-of-true front wheel and a couple nice scrapes to show for it. My bike is still in working order, but this does give me another reason to look into new parts. :)
Here is a picture of my rigorous route.
