back with a 'bang'

I have used the phrase 'back with a bang' many times, but it never has been so apt like this time.
I reached back on 8th morning after a small trip to Kerala (met some old friends, visited some temples, had lot of special food by mom, and did some small trips with KP, my Bullet) and on the way to office, Jeevs literally banged an Indica from side. I was overtaking a bus - the road was empty, and we both where doing around 60 kmph -suddenly, out of nowhere, an Indica guy came to the main road from one of the pocket roads. I was already half past the bus, so there was nothing much I could do than limiting the damage. Instincts kicked in suddenly and I steered the bike away from the face of the car, avoiding a head on collation, and my crash guard hit the rear bumper of the car. The impact was kind of strong - the crash guard tore away the rear bumper and the break leaver left a small dent on his rear right door, and I escaped with a bruised leg. Whew!, it was really back with a bang.

I am not regular in your pages as of now - will soon visit all the pages once I clear all the backlogs at my office.

Hope you are okay and your jeeves too. Let the bang be reserved for the welcome parties and be safe in roads.
