Rider down Nielson and Sheppard

Was comming home, saw a bike laying on its side in the middle of the intersection.. Only got a glimpse of the rear tire, looked like it belonged to a sport bike. Didnt see the rider or paramedics, apparantly he/she was taken to hospital by then. I'm speculating that a left turning car struck the bike as it was going north south on nielson.

Hope rider is okay.. I live 2 mins away and pass by that intersection a few times a day. Gonna head out now, I'll take a look to see if they're still there. It's the first time I saw a bike accident in person and it really shook me up.
 
Re: Rider down Nielson and Sheppard

Hi everyone, the OP is speaking about my accident, I was going south on Neilson when a cager turned left in front of me. The lights were green and there was no rush for her to turn when she did.

My bike is totaled and so are my arms. I also lost a testicle :(

I was riding very safe and still almost lost my life, so ride safe everyone and watch out for bad drivers.
 
Re: Rider down Nielson and Sheppard

any pictures of the tank getting the worst of it? Kidding aside wishing you all the best in speedy recovery. And don't worry too much about the bike at least you lived to ride another day bike can always be replaced but you can't.

Re: Rider down Nielson and Sheppard

I sent a search party to Nielson and Sheppard Fitz, but they couldn't find your lost testicle. :dontknow:
:D Ok, i hope that cheered you up a bit, if it makes you feel better, i have a friend named one-nut, gets him laid all the time.
But seriously, all the best to you man, crashes like this really make me angry, drivers are getting worse every day.
You sure type well with 2 busted arms, i hope they heal up fast, you kinda need those.
