Near hard crash...


Still training for our time trial, today we were practicing our team rotations in the group of three. Going around 26mph I notice a red Jetta take the red light. I scream loud and start to slam the breaks. Billy's wheel rams my back rim and he loses control and flips over as he is trying to stop behind me. The Jetta came within feet of ramming us.  Never before have we ever been so close to getting hit.  It pretty much scared the crap out of us.  My rear derailler hanger broke.  Billy was luck that he just came out with a small cut on one finger and that is all... Considering the fall, it seems like it should have been worse....


Now we just have to count our blessings.


You have to thank God everyday for the gifts he gives you.
