Ok, I'm used to being a target for cars, dodging deer, small animals etc when I ride but give me a freaking break.
Rode to work this morning cold as hell, slight fog inside my face shield so visibility not 100%, good but not perfect.
Came into the office with my coffee, and not 15 minutes behind me a co-worker comes in all pissed off with a dent in the side of her car.
She said she had hit a fiberglass handled shovel laying in the road and when she hit it the darn thing kicked up smacking the side of her car, She said she saw it just before hitting it but said she didn't have time to react. This gal goes the same way I do and when she told me where she had hit it I had just come through not 15 minutes earlier. Obviously some dumbass didn't secure it on a trailer or on the back of his truck and it had fallen into the road between the time I came through, and when she did. All I know is I would hate to have hit the damn thing on my bike!!
