Wear Your Helmets!

Did that myself about 15 years ago except when the rear tire came up off the ground the front wheel turned and I came down on the end of the handle bar on my mountain bike and broke 5 ribs.

Tis the season I guess. A buddy of mine was riding down his own driveway a few weeks ago when the chain broke and locked up the tire. It sent him @ss end over elbows and he ended up with a broken collar bone.

I had no idea they don't cast you up in that half frankenstine's monster pose any longer. They just dope you up and send you home in a sling.

Glad to hear your buddy walked away with scuffs only.

All the more reason to have a cigar and hop in the truck when I need to go somewhere
