Title: Groundhog-1 Monster-0 Post by: CTKurt on April 03, 2010, 11:59:47 AM I hit a groundhog yesterday mid turn on a slippery road at 35ish. I have insurance and an accident report. What else do I do? I am banged up a bit but otherwise ok physically. The entire right side of the bike hit and slid. I was wondering if i should get the replacement costs for my own knowledge and to compare?
Title: Re: Groundhog-1 Monster-0 Post by: CTKurt on April 03, 2010, 12:01:29 PM Also I have Progressive insurance.
The Scorpion EXO 700 helmet hit face first and worked well. I had a ICON Strongarm jacket that also did its job. I hit all the armor points and I have no bruises. My RT knee is skinned..jeans... Alpinestar GP Plus gloves have seen better days for sure as the pinky finger ripped open and I broke my finger. The rest of the glove did what it was supposed to do though. The padded points have some signs of impact and skid so I would have had a pretty badly bruised wrist if it didn't. Over all lesson learned was shit happens and woodchucks suck.

Sorry to hear that, glad you're mostly okay. Rest up, and use the insurance money for some serious bling. Title: Re: Groundhog-1 Monster-0 Post by: Howie on April 03, 2010, 06:15:10 PM Sorry to hear. Glad you are pretty much OK.
The best place for the adjuster to look at the bike is in a shop. Do you want to keep the bike and fix it? Did the groundhog have insurance? Title: Re: Groundhog-1 Monster-0 Post by: muskrat on April 03, 2010, 06:21:22 PM you're in one piece [thumbsup]
now bait the rest of those rodents for a 200 mile radius. Title: Re: Groundhog-1 Monster-0 Post by: Popeye the Sailor on April 03, 2010, 08:33:51 PM How much duc could a woodchuck chuck

Now to add to the humor, how about the THE TOP TEN CHUCK NORRIS FACTS: 01 Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried. 02 Chuck Norris counted to infinity - twice. 03 Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing. 04 If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death. 05 Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month. 06 When the Boogeyman goes to sleep every night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris. 07 Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck Norris met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement. 08 Chuck Norris has already been to Mars; that's why there are no signs of life there. 09 They once made a Chuck Norris toilet paper, but it wouldn't take shit from anybody. 10 A blind man once stepped on Chuck Norris' shoe. Chuck replied, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Chuck Norris!" The mere mention of his name cured this man blindness. Sadly the first, last, and only thing this man ever saw, was a fatal roundhouse delivered by Chuck Norris.
