Accident Resolved!

Just a bit of good news to pass along! My accident has been resolved. I settled with the insurance company yesterday. I believe the amount I received was very fair, it was just a tad bit more then I had lost in total as a result from the accident. Although, money is nice, so I can get a new bike and return to my training, it can never take away the fact that I was hit by a car while cycling. A painful and traumatic experience that I wouldn't wish upon anyone. I thought I was a careful cyclist before, but now I will be extra cautious. It is unfortunate, that due to the accident I missed out on a once in a life-time bike trip and a good friends going away party, but I suppose the most important thing was that I was not seriously injured. ....and at least it gave me the chance to slow down and check out Thailand, which was completely unforgettable!
