. . . how strange we must look to car drivers when we suddenly fall over for no reason?
I had a somewhat high speed clipless fall last night. My own fault. Going to fast, mind somewhere else, came screaming up to a stop sign and . . . oh Sh*t a car!Couldn't get unclipped and fell. After a quick mental tally, bike fine, no holes in my new shorts, darn that hurt, I got to thinking. I wonder what the driver of that car must have thought? To see me ride up to the stop sign and promptly fall.

No wonder some drivers give us such a wide berth! They never know when we'll just fall over.

I'm fine other than a knee that looks like hamburger and a nicely spreading bruise on my hip. And this has given me the chance to try the Second Skin bandages I've been reading so much about lately. So far, so good. The road rash hardly hurts. And as long as the Aleve doesn't wear off nothing else does either!bikerHen
Note: Don't read if your eating. I do have a question about the Second Skin bandages. Are they suppose to leak? Mine has been leaking fluid from under the bandage all morning. Is that normal?
