Very bad morning!!!
So i woke up this morning 5 am. Going to work early so i can get home before the sun goes down. One eye open of course like every morning before coffee. I put my truck in reverse and start out the drive when i hit the biggest speed bump every(aka my f@#$ motorcycle). I forgot that i washed and waxed the night before and left it out. I have been sick all day and i just want to die.

Don't feel like the Lone Ranger....I walked between my truck and my daughters car , got in the truck , put it in reverse and backed right into my daughters car. I KNEW it was there just a second before but forgot.
Glad it wasn't my bike.

Damn...That sucks.
I hope the damage is minor and you're able to get it fixed quickly.

Dude, I feel for you. That would mess with me something awful. Hard to forgive yourself but deal with it and don't look back/play what if games.
Hoping for low damage and an easy fix!

Insurance guy said two weeks to a month 500$ copayment. Sucks not to ride. I'm glad I'm not the only one to run over stuff. If it could of only have been my wife's car instead of my bike.
