:D
I was RACING yesturday... trying to beat the delivery guys (who had my new fridge for my new unit) back to my place. I had 20mins and 5 km to to ride... MOSTLY uphill!
Anyhue. I was flying round a cornerat 17k per hour, and came off the footpath onto the dirtpatch infront of McDonalds. BAM!
I crashed over.
But Somehow the adrenalin was pumping... and I ended up on my feet BESIDE the bike whilst still hanging onto the handlebars!
After a few seconds of "BREATHE" I realised that 1: I'd survived my first fall UNINJURED! and 2: The step thru is what probably stopped me from going arse up... I had swung my leg over the front and landed on my feet.
I'm now so GLAD I chose my step thru frame. yet another reason I love my bike :o
