Can't believe you're smiling in that photo! I'm impressed with your remarkable resilience--both physical and emotional--Brava! And thanks for sharing your frightening experience with us. Maybe some of us can learn something from it.
Ok Jeni....I see on that last picture, the one of you lying there, what looks to be your bike's tire at the bottom of the picture edge over your stomache.
Does this mean your poor bike was hovering anxiously over you while you lay there, trying to help you despite it's own grave injuries? :o
and who's lap were you lying in?
Scary, scary, scary stuff
Someone needs to invent airbags that stuff in handlebar bags :)
My sympathies towards the injury to yourself and your bike
Elated to hear that you are healing well :D
Let us know how your first ride back is
Your jersey says it all -- you go girl!
Y:eek: Your poor Baby!!! Mustang Sally was such a brave girl! Poor you too!
Hope you got some good meds out of the whole thing!
When my brother gave me my beloved Boo-sikki ( Mytrusty Giant) - he told me there are only 2 kinds of cyclists- those who have crashed & those who
haven't crashed YET!
I pray for a speedy recovery for both of you
Not who you think! He was too far out front. But that's going extremely well too. Thanks for asking!Quote:

Yes, good eyes, I had asked to have my front wheel so I could look at it. Wished I had gotten a picture of me with the wheel in one hand, giving a thumbs up with the other, like football players do when being taken off the field.Quote:

Jeni
OMG, you are one tough cookie!!! I cannot believe you are smiling in that picture and now you say you went on a casual 25 miler. Good grief girl, give your poor body some time. LOL
a 25 miler alone is still a killer for me. :D
I am so very glad you are okay. I cannot believe no one with a car stopped. I mean do they think that the bike riders are going to pull you down hill on a strecher or something. :eek:
I prefer to think that your poor noble injured bike was desperately trying to save you & perform the Heimlich maneuver on you while you lay injured! :)Quote:

TE girls ARE tough as nails.
Quick recovery, Jeni! =)
In Jeni's case, way tougher than any aluminum fork.Quote:

Glad to read that it wasn't worse for you. And that your bike broke in half nice and clean so you could repair it quickly. I think the clock idea is a great one!
