I woke up this Sunday and found the day to be to beautiful to waste doing yard work or chores. I decided to get on the bike and ride into town because I was only able to get in one 16+ ride this week. It was an unusual morning because there was a lot of traffic and everyone was in a hurry it seemed. My bank was crowded so I decided to go to the corner store ATM for some cash. While turning into the parking lot, there was a car that was driving right next to me. When I slowed down to let them pass, they slowed down too. When I speed up to pass, they sped up too. I finally decided to maintain my speed and hope that they finally pass so I can continue and when they finally did, I ran out of road so I had to do a sharp turn to keep from going into the mud. In doing so, I dropped my bike and went over the handlebars. I was able to roll into the fall so it wasn’t too bad but when I tried to continue my ride, it was too painful and my handlebar ends where twisted at that point. It look like I wont be riding today or anytime soon for that matter.
Distance: 5.16 miles
