    I'm pretty sure Martha, my bike, is okay. I haven't really taken a good look at her yet.

    I think next time I crash I should do it more elegantly, hehehe.

    No need for embarrassment! Just be smug that you outmaneuvered a bus, a parked SUV, and add a couple or three joggers to the tale. It will turn into a masterful bit of cycling/dodging and a heroic and unselfish act of martyrdom to avoid running down a puppy!

    I didn't do it on a bike... But I did run into a big rose bush as a kid. I was playing with my big brother and of course I didn't live it down for a long time. Those scratches hurt but not as much as my little 8-year-old pride.

    Glad you weren't hurt! Seriously, make the story grand for co-workers.

    I dod go to the doctors yesterday to check on my shoulder, he made me take a x-ray. I don't think anything is broken but I do think something is terribly wrong.
