ritchey swiss cross died too soon

I picked this up as a Christmas project to build into a proper cross rig. On its fifth ride a car pulled into the bike lane and I t-boned it as illustrated. Concussion, sutures and some hard swelling in my forearm that isn't going away resulted as well as a bent frame. I was impressed that the carbon steerer and fork stayed intact. That incident with the car broke a 35 year streak. Here's to another 35 year stretch.
