Thank you!!! Im not a bad driver at all.. I was only going around 35 - 40 MPH when I had my accident, which was the 1st accident I have ever had in my life. The rest of the stuff was not my fault, just heppened to be in the wrong place a tthe wrong time.

From what I hear, they were both on/near the double yellow line so it wasn't really the biker's fault. Now, that's just the story I heard...

still...if the bike hits the car...and did that much dmg im voting its the bikes fault. But were the authorities involved to take care of damages or did we have a hit and run?

Again though, they kinda hit each other (2nd hand information). Both on the double yellow, side swiped each other.

How fast does a cyclist run after doing that much damage to a car?

^ From what I heard, they cited the FC for the accident even though it was really the bikers fault

Alright, so what I have learned from this thread so far is that a lot of accidents happen at this event, and Pink Flea is extremely bad luck and therefore should avoid her like the plague. Got it.

Three accidents is hardly a lot. I say it was pretty good odds for the amount of cars and people that attended. And yes, you are right about Pink Flea...you figure she would stay away from the mountains from now on since, she has had back to back bad luck trips there!


Sorry Janna, glad you're okay though. I really do think you need to take a break from driving anything rotary related for awhile!!!

I too was a victim of loose lug nuts, fortunately i pulled over quickly enough to find out what was making that knocking sound.. happened halfway through hte dragon friday night

sorry about all the incidents through the weekend, we just need to be more careful.. and stay as far right as possible when bikes come by!! the noobs tend hug the inner line and lean into your lane
