On our way to the beach, ten minutes from our house, we were hit by an 18 wheeler! OMG!! Yes it was scary but mostly it was a huge pain as the guy managed to ruin all 5 bikes and the back end of the car. And the kicker- it was a hit and run. Unbelievably, after smashing into a suburban with 5 bikes, 3 kids, 2 dogs and 2 adults at 8:10am the driver just drove away. My 7 year old (sitting in the 3rd seat) had glass from the back window down her shirt. It is probably a good thing the bikes were there if you ask me. But get this, bikes are not covered by auto insurance but the bike rack is. Weird. We were all absolutely fine. After filing the report with the police and switching cars, we left about an hour later. It can only get better from here, right?
