such a cute bike. I am sure your daughter is okay now. Time to buy her a new cute bike.

I hope your baby girl is not crying much for her bike.

Best of luck!

Looked like you have PDC. What happened, you didn't use it? Even PDC is surround sounded so you know where it's coming from. Man, that is soooo uncool to run over your daughter's bike. Pick on something of your own size!!!! This is very rare for me to say, but that bimmer bumper deserves it . . . running over a little kid's bike. Geeees

Man, your license should be taken away.

Sorry to see that.

You say the bike survived, but I think you may want to check the front wheel alignment & balancing on your daughters bike

Isn't it nice being a family man?!

Makes me understand why some men drive a Fiat Multipla. Kindof..
Maybe not.

BTW Jay, interested in a nice set of 124's to replace those marked wheels of yours?

ha ha ... good joke..

PDC was working yes .. but i was also close to a wall so thought it was that and didn't take much notice.

wheel allignment looks fine on bike. 1 new pedal needed.
