Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

Just got back to Jerusalem my bruise was a bit sore on the long flight but all is good. My bike seemed to survive the flight too but might need to get the weels trued. Now it is time to search for a the new helment. DOn't know what brands they have here. Will try to find out today. THanks for the advice everyone.

Wow!, Bones and Denise G., this sounds exactly like my mysterious crash 2 weeks ago. I think it was slippery pavement due to extreme heat.
But anyway, I am healing nicely, went on a trip to Long Island and biked the LI wine country as a way to re-hab. Gigantic bruise is now fading and only have a tiny twinge of the rib/chest pain I had.Crediamo in te, bici!

The one bike shop I went into seemed to have mostly serfas and mango helments. Neither is sold by the shops I was in in Brooklyn but serfas is an american company apparently. They said one could get bell in the country but its very costly. I asked about SNELL etc and they told me every helmet that comes into the country has to pass some test here. I bought the Serfas bc it seemed to fit. But might look in a few more shops just to see what else is sold here.
