Good to see you made it through, that is a lucky one.

I hope you made the driver aware of his/her stupid driving.

it was kinda my fault too i guess, it was in that sort of 1 lane split into 2 situation , if i was the driver i wouldn't indicator as well...........

anyway, this is my first ever bike related accident, so i was scared, i didn't know what to do

Shoulda stopped, picked up your mirror, then hardened the fk up!!!

the one that made me shit my pants was running over a big peice of wood (like maybe 20cm each side (rectangle))

while lanesplitting at 80kmph down the monash (locked the front and the back up)

somehow managed to get the front over then the back over, then pulled over 2 minutes later and had a smoke, watching all the cars pass me

nah didn't, it first hit my side mirror then hit my arm and my arm by instinct tried to push it away, alto i know that's stupid and would never work trying to push a car away with my arm
