1. police report later
2. parts x-rayed
3. hours in the ER
leaves me with a concussion, fucked shoulder & wrist (yay sling for 1-2 weeks!)
The cab hit me directly on my skull and shoulder and threw me off my bike on the ground. I know many people find it “too hot”, “unhip”, or just plain don’t understand, but let’s all give praise to the bike helmet that quite rightly saved me today in bike vs Chicago cab.

Also, it’s time for a new helmet. I think some companies have a trade-in deal of it’s been through a collision.

don’t forget to replace that helmet (they’re only rated for one collision usually)
