Short ride turned into no ride

Well crap! Just getting out with my new knee and working up my stamina for riding. Able to do 3 hour rides (with a break) no problem. Went out for a short ride yesterday and got rear ended. My Veronica is dead, long live Veronica!

Moved this collection of posts to their own thread since it there was plenty to make a separate subject.

update -
Cat scan showed internal bruising from front to back and around my ribs. X-Rays showed my new knee wasn’t damaged and blood work confirmed no internal bleeding. Oh, and I have a good size kidney stone. I’ve got some exterior bruising and some broken skin around my tailbone. A nice imprint of D3O armor from my jacket on my upper back was a weird one I thought. Headache for three days, bit my tongue and definite whiplash feelings around my neck. The bill for hospital facility is about $19750. Won’t know Dr and i assume radiologist charges for several weeks.

The lady who hit me cancelled their auto insurance in March I was told by her company. The adjuster called back later and said a policy did show up that went into effect the day before the accident so she must have a very very good friend who backdated the coverage. If the company (Integon) figures that out they may deny the claim and then it would go thru my company - Progressive. What a pia!

Four days later and I finally feel like I can do something. Stiff and sore to say the least! Now I sit and wait on the adjusters.
