Had a nice run-in with the pavement last night at about 7:45 at North Park. I was in the bike lane, riding with my husband in front, and saw my husband signal that he was slowing. I decreased speed, then suddenly a car was directly in front of me, making a left into the boat house parking lot. It was either mash on the brakes or hit the car, so the brakes went on, locked up and I went for a nice sail over the top/side of my bars and skidded a few good feet. My husband made sure the motorist stopped while other cyclists in the area made sure that I was OK and took care of my bike. All told, I've got some gnarly road rash, a cracked, ruined, helmet, a ruined left shoe and some new ultegra components to buy. Police were called and ambulance checked me out as a precaution. Dude claimed innocence...didn't see us due to sun glare. There were at least 5 cyclists coming down the hill within a few feet of each other, and he didn't see us?! Seems to me like sun glare is the stock answer for any motorist induced crash in the Pittsburgh area. BS. The dude made eye contact with my husband before he turned, and we had the right-of-way. Don't know where I am going to take this one. I def want my gear replaced, at the very least. Ugh.
