    Hi lovely ladies! Oh, it's good to be home. There were days when I knew I needed to be at the hospital, but it is nice to be home now.

    Oh my there is so much to tell you all. let me see if I can get up pics.

    The silver bike.....back wheel taco'd , probably from impact from falling out of the air



    Top tube dented from impact from the handlebar twisting back, probably what made me pop up into the air.



    Really not in terrible shape. It cost $100 to get it back to ride-able condition

    I'm amazed at how well your bike held up.

    Too bad it doesn't only cost $100 to get you back in ride-able condition.

    Oh, dear, I don't even want to imagine what my hospital bill is.

    ok, here's a pic of my helmet, see the indentation of gravel?



    cracks on the inside, not sure if you will be able to see this
