I remember the moment when impact was inevitable and I remember hitting the ground and nothing in between. It was just random chance that I ended up how I did.

I got hit by a car, riding my bike on Tuesday. Smashed up my phone and my bike.

Bike has already been fully inspected, repaired, and brough home.
