today i went into a turn coming downhill at around 45 and leaned too far into the turn and the bike slid about 15'. Luckily i was wearing Racing Leathers so i didn't get road rash but man was that scary. befor that i was just cruising at the beach and i looked to my left too look at some moving scenery and i hit a Cooler at 10 MPH that hurt and was embarrassing as heck!

Wiped and opened up my knee to the bone requiring 5 stitches. Developed cellulitis up and down my leg that required IV antibiotics. The antibiotics made me horribly sick for a week, which caused a secondary infection to develop, that took several weeks to get rid of.

First time out, I had a loose pedal chain. I started to make a wide u-turn and got brain freeze, pedal chain came up and jammed, engine revved up and I slammed into a curb. total loss of front rim. no injuries. thats it. been running it 20+ miles a week without incident.

loose gravel on asphalt and taking a turn waaay too fast. no stitches (superglue) and a
6" long scar on left arm.
had an audience.

crossing the trolley tracks on 4th ave too parallel....split elbow cap, have bone chip floating around in it.
again, had an audience....college girls drinking coffee, no less.
