Shoot, I was hoping to get more footage of the birds ass whilst it was flying.

Not to play "connect the video" But yours reminded me of this one...

Cyclist: Driver didn't see me stuck in windshield

MANITOWOC, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin man who became lodged in the windshield of a car that struck him said he turned to the driver and said, "Hello, I'm the guy you hit on the bicycle."

The driver did not respond, but continued on, running a stop sign and hitting another vehicle before he arrived home, the cyclist, Steven Gove, told HTR Media about the Saturday incident.

The man finally noticed Gove when he stopped the car outside his home.

"He looked at me and said 'Who are you? What are you doing in the car?'" Gove said. "He started freaking out: 'I'm going to jail, I'm going to jail.'"

The man then locked the car doors and went into his home. Gove, whose body had gone most of the way through the windshield, then pulled his knees and feet into the car.

"I righted myself and got out," he said. "I unlocked the passenger's side door and started walking down the street."

A witness had called police, who found Gove as he was walking and took him to a hospital. Doctors removed glass from Gove's eyes and treated him for other cuts to the head and leg.

The driver, a 20-year-old Manitowoc man, was found at the home and treated at a hospital for a serious cut to the hand. He hadn't been formally charged as of Tuesday morning, but he was facing several preliminary charges, including suspicion of drunken driving, suspicion of hit-and-run causing injury and suspicion of failing to render aid.

Gove, a 56-year-old newspaper carrier, was shocked that the driver didn't see him on his three-wheeled delivery bike.

"I was wearing my blue overcoat with my neon reflective vest," said Gove. "I had my front and rear flashers on. I have no idea why he didn't see me."

A 50-year-old Green Bay man died in a similar accident in 2007. Steven Warrichaiet was sentenced to 15 years in prison for hitting Tyrone Ware, driving home with Ware's body lodged in the windshield and leaving Ware in the garage while Warrichaiet went inside and fell asleep on the couch. An autopsy showed Ware died instantly of spinal injuries.

We would LOVE to know what was going on in Andrea Mitchell's head when she was forced to cut off a discussion about the NSA for breaking news about Justin Bieber's arrest.

Yowie! I can just imagine, having cycling pals, including first lover a million years ago who rode a very long way to see me; bro in law and his daughter, my niece; and a cycling racer artist friend, and we all - or many of us - know Roger of a2k. And lest I forget, JoeNation.

I also, long ago, had a friend of sorts (friend of a friend but I never really got to know her even though I met her many times and liked her, she was quite self possessed, formal - she had an autocratic father from the old country and her mother died of stomach cancer when this friend was a teen, when I knew her, probably when we were all nineteen; oh and the father put her dog to sleep since it was a nuisance. I still remember the dog's name) who knocked over a bicyclist while turning a corner in a nearly empty street on a sunny day. The bicyclist wasn't badly hurt, but still. She went into therapy, that was the trigger to get her there.

I used to teach people to bicycle long distance; first thing to understand is that , to anyone else on the road, you are invisible.
