But I'm ok. Didn't see the dew on the side of the road and down I went.

The road near my house is a downhill lefthander with a stop sign at
the bottom. You can only make a left or right. Car was making a left
turn so I was in the right lane to turn right. I applied the front
brake and down I went.

Broke the left turn signal, the shifter was broke along with the
shift-link and the cap at the end of the grip came off. Other than
that I was able to ride back home (less than a mile) in first gear and
drove the cage into work.

Oh, and the frame puck did its job.

So I already have a shift linkage, looking for a turn signal.

Wow! That is one slippery road surface. Glad to hear you're ok.

Those downhill corners are a b*tch

One of my favourite rides has a fabulous off-camber downhill right hander less than 50 m before a STOP sign at a rural crossroads, I kid you not. There's more rubber on the road than there is at the Corkscrew and the hedgerows have been re-arranged countless times.

Glad to hear you're OK though.

So your making a right hand turn and fall on the left side?
Was it a highside?
