1.) Totally my fault. Tried to take a left onto a side street. Was behind a fire truck so I had no view of the lane and I just went for it. Head on collision with a 1984 Buick Skylark driven by a middle-aged Asian couple. Will never forget the look of the Asian woman's face as I smashed into the front windshield. I was knocked unconscious but according to the witnesses including a couple of the firemen, I ricocheted about 15 feet in the air and landed on the front lawn of a funeral home. Amazingly enough, I was unhurt besides some scrapes and bruises. In those days you did not go to the hospital for a mild concussion. My bike however was folded in half and stuck under the car. They had to call in a tow truck to lift the front of the car up enough to retrieve the mangled wreck. I got driven home in a cop car and the bike easily fit in the trunk.
2.) Car pulled out of a driveway as I was going down a hill and I smashed into the trunk of the car and was catapulted a good distance before hitting the curb and skidded down the road a good deal. Driver paid for a new kit and for my front wheel to be trued. Mom (thankfully and somewhat unthankfully a nurse) had to come get me and then spent the next 2 hours cleaning the road rash with iodine. Lots of gauze bandages and anti-bacterial ointment.
3.) No clue what happened but it happened on a bike - came home from a ride and was covered in pollen and had some minor scrapes. According to mom, had no idea that I had been on a ride, did not know the day or date, did not know my mom's name or anyone else in the family... Severe concussion. Spent 3 weeks in the hospital with almost total amnesia. Started to get the memory back but it took months and to this day I don't remember any of it. Was plagued with non-convulsive seizures for about the next two years.
4.) Broadsided by a mail truck at low speed. NEARLY smashed by a car in the next lane. I was unhurt and only very minor scrapes but it almost was much much worse.
5.) Training ride at night - some college kids outside a bar hoot an holler at me so I mooned them. A mile down the road they caught up to me in a pick up truck, two individuals in the bed smashed beer bottles against the roll bar and chucked them at me. Got hit once in the shoulder. Tried to evade but they caught me again, forced me off the road where I flipped over a wire barricade and then they beat the pulp out of me. OK, so I kinda deserved something but that was excessive.
6.) Broadsided by a car during a race (semi-closed course, cop at intersection totally at fault). Broken arm, broken leg, broken bike, broken ribs, knocked out.
7.) Forced off the road by an Audi who didn't like me passing the line of traffic he was in. Went down hard into the brush off the side of the road. Got a license plate photo, let the police take care of it.
8.) Cut off by a Nissan Xterra who tried to speed in front of me and then turn right. Went splat into the passenger side rear quarter panel. Somehow managed to stay upright. Other than me being exceptionally ******-off, the bike and I were fine.
