Bike fell over, hello dammed Di2 derailleur

<sigh>

So I learned the hard way this weekend that standing your bike up against the curb (using the pedal for support) is a bad idea. I did this then a big gust of wind blew my bike over. On to the Di2 derailleur.

The damage? Bent hanger, which I didn't see. So I decided to go for a ride and WHAMMO! Chain jumped in to the spokes, breaking three of them AND bending the hanger arm all to hell. The ride I was going to do never happened AND I'm out of pocket X dollars to fix this everything. PLUS I'm concerned the Di2 is all jacked up and I'm going to be out of money a whole lot more.

I didn't know whether to cry or yell when it happened. Especially since I always baby my bike. Needless to say, I'm not in a happy mood at the moment.

That is all.
