    I did 62 miles, again
    This may be a bummer
    we had visitor from Redding join us on our club ride.
    I actually made it to the regroup before mt Baldy before everyone left!
    I stopped to change my glasses,and everyone left
    I was coming down Euclid Avenue, and a Firefighter was in the middle of the road waving for me to stop.
    The Guy from redding was laying out cold in the middle of the street
    You can easily 50-60 mph on this descent. He developed a speed wobble and locked his front brakes. He would up being airlifted to Loma Linda.
    Since I don't deal well with blood and gore, I rode back to notify the rest of the gang what had transpire> I then rode to San Dimas to get a metric. I talked with a couple of women riders (didn't get their names. Punish me!) before heading home
    San Antonio Dam:

    The Crash triage group heading in:

    Yea, that's a bummer

    Shrinks the bummedness of people leaving when you change yer glasses... but that's a bummer too. It's just a thing, though - we still talk about the time my buddy was changing his shirt, and sprinkles started, and the whole group took off like bats from Hades as if they MIGHT avoid getting wet.

    Poor blighter. HOPE it's something he can fully recover from.
