So today I got out on a fab 2 hour jaunt. I was stoked because in 2 hours I rode 31.5 miles, above average for me. And this was despite a nasty wind blowing from what felt like the east.. Typical AZ wind...It seems it's ALWAYS windy here.. sigh..:rolleyes:
Anyhoo, I must have been feeling quite smug, because as I pull up to the front of the house I unclip my right foot and step down. And... well I'm sure you know where this is going...:cool: I guess my mind forgot to tell my left foot to unclip. The next thing you know I'm leaning to the left to put the other foot down, but it's still clipped in and WHAM! down I go... RIGHT IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY!!! :o
So I feel like a total fool. Manage to get my bike off me, pop up, inspect the damage, not too much, so off I went to change for my run. Yeah I took a layer of skin off my knee and elbow, but that wasn't gonna stop me from bricking my ride. It stung a bit, but I managed to get my 3 miles in w/ no real pain. It mostly just stings. No real wounds unless of course you count my pride. LOL
Luckily no neighbors were out to witness it!! OY! That would have been a story for them to banter about!! :D
