Well I may be out for 01-28-17 ride, 20 year old kid lost it on a corner on wet payment slid sideways into me frontal impact, totaled truck, damaged trailer and need to get the Pioneer checked out, back straps broke, S x S hit the front of the trailer pretty hard. I had it in 4 wheel lock and it slid 2 feet on the trailer. Man do I have respect of the engineers that designed air bags, all but the passenger bags went off, no passenger this time. All I wanted to do today was go to Pettigrew for a day of ridding. There are some people who just need to ride bicycles.
I was running 55 and I bet he was doing 70 on bald tires, it happened so quick, I didn't have time to say poop!

First thing he said when he got out of his truck was I've got full coverage and I was headed to town to cancel it, HUGH? DUMB ASS KID!
The newer trucks/cars are designed so well for crashes, the impact was spread to the middle of the truck, with the weight of the trailer and S x S it buckled the frame behind the cab.

Thanks, I'm getting really sore now, first high speed crash I've ever had, it took 4 beers to settle my nerves, HA!

You almost never hurt at the time of the crash it's when you wake up the next day that you're all messed up

I guess you meant this to be posted in the Mulberry Ride thread.

Right here. For some reason I wasn't getting notifications. Dang Smitty! Glad to hear you are ok. Hopefully the pioneer survived. New cars today are wonders of engineering. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of truck was it? Some drivers need a high-five, in the face, with a chair.
