    My only injury.


    Some more detail on what happened, the cyclist looked back, didn't see me, started to move across the lane, looked again, froze and stopped directly in my path. I was already on the brakes at this point, went into a bit of a rolling endo, nicked the cyclists rear tire and then I fell, rolled... jumped back up and ran over to the cyclist to make sure they were ok.

    Entire left side of my bike is scuffed up, left mirror snapped off, currently waiting for the JB Weld to set on it.

    Otherwise, I rode the bike home after grabbing some food to calm my nerves.
