Bad luck!!
Hey, y'all! Had some bad luck today: I was rearended by a car this afternoon.
Situation: I was leavin' a gasstation over an intersection and stopped for a old lady who's was crossing a pedestrian crossing and......boom I was lying by side of the road with my Tenere. Happily I wasn't injured but my Tenere was in a bad shape, unfortunately: the rearend with licenseplate and indicators broken off, my pannier rack bent, one pannier torn off, the other bent, rear handle(left) broken, handlebar bent(the brakecilinder now touches the console), mirrors bent(not broken), handguard left bent and some scrathes here and there. These are the "injuries" at first sight, tuesday there'll be a full examination of the damage by my dealer for the insurance. Oh yeah and the car had some major damage too: major dented front and radiotor kaput and leaking(the driver said he didn't see me stop! he wasn't injured either, happily). Major BUMMER!!!!
Hope the damage is not too big and can be fixed, so I can ride again pretty soon.
Greetz, Hans.
