The Supernova Saved My Life!

I am alive today because I was wearing the Supernova light. I run at night on a desolate side road to a major interstate. My route is a simple out and back course and that means that for half of the route, I have my back to the traffic. Because of that, I decided to wear two Supernova's, one on the front of my shirt and one on the back. They are light weight enough to just clip to my running shirt collar, and the two provide "coming" and "going" safety lighting.

One night, after reaching the halfway point, I didn't see a car in sight and I walked across the road to begin my return loop. I never saw any headlights or any car. But, the next thing I knew was that I heard the clicking of antilock brakes and the deep swerving sound of rubber against asphalt. A large SUV swerved around me with less than 3 feet to spare! He had exited the interstate and was going at least 60 to 70 MPH. It was such a sharp maneuver for the SUV that it took a half mile or so for him to get it back under control. A telling point is that the driver never stopped to see how I was doing. Had they hit me, I'd have been left on the side of a fairly deserted road. Since the driver only had a sideways view of me, I firmly believe that the ONLY reason that I'm alive today is because I was wearing the Supernova lights. Thank you.

"My identification / medical cards were illegible"
I wish I had a Road ID last summer during a rainy century ride. I was riding along when suddenly I slipped on some train tracks going about 22 mph. By the time I was taken to the nearest hospital, I was soaked, filthy, and in mild shock. I carried my medical cards, and other forms of identification, but they had... - Elizabeth T, West Hartford, CT Continue Reading

"My Road ID got me immediate treatment"
I am a professional duathlete living in the western suburbs of Chicago. I was out on a training ride, going about 20 mph through a neighborhood that is known to be "cyclist friendly". Suddenly a driver – on a cell phone – backed right out of a parking space in front of me. I hit the back of the SUV and proceeded to bounce... - Guy P, Westmont, IL Continue Reading

"I was left lying in the middle of the road"
Long story short, I was out for a Friday ride, when a truck blew through a stop sign, throwing me in the air and destroying my newly built up Cannondale CAAD9 road bike. The driver didn't even stop to check on me. He fled the scene leaving me in the middle of the road. Luckily a passer by came to the scene, and... - Damon A, Indianapolis, IN Continue Reading

"I heard the EMTs access my emergency profile"
Well, that moment we "road bikers" dread, happened to me on Saturday. To make a long story short, my back wheel got caught in a railroad track as I was crossing it at 18 mph, and...you can guess what happened next. After that, I regained awareness only twice- once in the ambulance for a few minutes, then later... - Patrick M, Lockport, NY Continue Reading

"My Road ID spoke for me twice!"
My Road ID spoke for me twice last summer when I was in a bike accident. I was out riding along a local route, when a car turned directly into me. I hit hard, sliding over the trunk and then sliding another 8 feet on gravel. When the emergency responders arrived, I was conscious, but not really 'with it'. They got all my information... - Sara Z, Pottstown, PA Continue Reading
