The most expensive cup of coffee ever
My wife and I rode to a little town called Mosier (population about 200) where we stopped to have a cup of coffee. I placed my bike in the bike rack next to hers. We were sipping our coffee, enjoying the day when a big tractor/ trailer cut the corner short and ran over my $3500.00 dollar race bike! My wifes bike went unscathed, yet mine is a total. Note the broken carbon fiber frame.
He did not stop and luckily there was a guy on a motorcycle that chased him down. We exchanged info and I hope his insurance steps up to pay. The shop owner took the pics. FYI the shop owner has his vintage Porsche collection on display at the coffee shop. It is really pretty cool.

I'm into the mountain biking and i know what i feels like to loose a bike. Got mine stolen. Good luck with the insurance, and from the looks of it you had a nice bike.

Wow, you can even see the tire tracks.
Sorry about your bike. We once paid a mover to move the contents of our house. The driver wound up strapping my mountain bike to the trucks exhaust and melted a tire and other damage. I complained that I wanted my items IN THE TRUCK!

I have a Trek. It costs $200, has two petals, a handlebar, and two wheels. If it got hit by a tractor trailer, I would be upset that I had to walk home.

I also know what its like to have an expensive bike, except mine was built to not break. Doubt a BMX bike can take a hit from a tractor trailer though. Hopefully you get every penny's worth out of the insurance

Careful FNG, he was being sarcastic. You have to get to know him a little better. I hate hit and runs. Did he know it at the time? I doubt a tractor trailer felt hitting the bike. Did you see his face in the mirror, or was it gone already? Good luck.
