CRASH!
i dumped my bike the other day. i was coming home with g. he did something that wasn't as safety conscious as it could have been. so i called a stop. and turned into a driveway at a too shallow angle. the front wheel caught on a lip. i knew i was going down. so i jammed on the brakes. and alternately steered into and away from the lip in the hopes of hopping it and recovering. not this time. i dropped the bike and pronked off of it. i landed on palms and toes. and recovered quickly. no damage. good thing i wasn't wearing my newly knitted mitts. they might have been mussed. i picked up my bike. and a good samaritan stopped to see if i was okay. i looked at the line of cars piling up behind her. they were all trying to race through the intersection before the light turned red. headlights disappeared below bumpers. i said yes and drive! it be kinda foolish to cause an accident while dealing with an accident unnecessarily. anywho. nonplussed, i gave my safety speech. and we were on our way.
