Dear Listers, Just a short story, I myself one month ago was on one of my beloved bikes and a person cut me off in her car last minute and I could hardly even apply the brakes. After I slammed into the side of the car, I ended up with a concussion, a larger nose than I normally had and several other maladies. Thank God I had a modern helmet on. Of course my first thought after I realized I was alive was "how is my bike". It will survive. So just my story to tell you all. Make sure you have a good helmet on because mine saved my bald head!
