Ozzie NL Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Had my first proper crash today. Came off at pace during club ride. Not too badly banged up but amazed as to how quickly it all happened. One moment I am nicely following the wheel of rider in front of me, next I know I fly over him and as I hit the tar, see my bike bounce like it is made from rubber. Guess it had to happen sometime.
Guest Latent Blue Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 Heal up well! Be greatfull it wasnt caused by a 18weeler trampeling you... is the bike ok at least?
Ozzie NL Posted September 7, 2013 Author Posted September 7, 2013 Bike seems fine as I finished remaining 50 odd km of ride on it after crash. Def need new bar tape and saddle as they bore the brunt of the impact. Left machine at LBS for service and general check up. Opportunity to treat myself to new Fi'zi:k
Maniax Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Yep. The memory of my intimate connection with lady tar is still fresh in my mind.... The parts that i can remember. Heal up soon.
Vetseun Posted September 8, 2013 Posted September 8, 2013 Heal well Ossie. You will have to post a pic. Hub rules clearly state. A picture or it didnt happen.
Thomo Posted September 9, 2013 Posted September 9, 2013 ... amazed as to how quickly it all happened. All it takes is a momentary lapse in concentration.Heal up quickly.!
