Your encounter with the RR tracks sounds quite painful. Please get your wrist x-rayed. I speak from personal experience and blew my bad fall off only to learn 6 weeks later that my wrist was fractured. Hope your wounds heal quickly.

I hope you heal quickly. Those cars are always showing up at the wrong time.
I like to think that your first wreck only makes you a better cyclist. Now that your body knows wrecking doesn't have to be a life or death situation you will be able to ride with more confidence.
Ooh... Sorry about that, but I'm glad you weren't more hurt. My first wreck (and only so far) was also going down hard on my right side. I felt me head slam into the pavement too, but the helmet, thank goodness, was on tight.

I am always so leary of RR tracks.
Feel better.
Sorry to hear of your fall, AntieK and on one of the first 'nice' days we have had in a very long time. I hope your healing is quick, but get that wrist checked out. I hate some of the tracks we have around here....

Like Emily....a couple of years ago my front wheel got caught in a ridge of broken up road and fractured my shoulder. (although a far cry from Emily's injuries).
You are lucky to not have broken anything, however, I hope all your bruises, aches and pains heal quickly.
