Saturday ride

My plan this weekend was to ride each day at 4:00 when I finished working. Saturday I called my friends Scott and Kraig to see if they wanted to join me. Scott (Cave) is having some issues with his back so he hasnt been riding until he get that taken care of. Kraig already had a group ride planned for 2:00. Kraig ended up changing his group ride until 4:00 so I could go and we all met at my store. We left at 4:00 and headed towards the river, they were going to ride Black Dog Road to Bloomington and back. I was going to ride with them and then go off on my own. About 10 minutes into the ride I am riding in the middle of the pack on my Trek SS. The guy on my left thinks he hears a car and deceides to look back, as he is looking back he vears right, towards me. He ends up riding into me and sticking his foot in my front wheel. Needless to say I went down hard. It was towards the bottom of a hill so we were carrying some speed. My whole right side has some good road rash. My right elbow is the only thing that is really bothering me today, it is really stiff. My front wheels looks like a taco. I unhooked my front brake and wobbled back to the store. No more group rides with rookies! Today is going to be 50 and I'm not going to ride so I can heal up. I wanna do the Spoke Pony 6 hour race in 2 weeks.
