    Oddest fall? Tell all!

    What is the oddest fall you've taken from a bike, or the oddest position you landed in?

    Today I was riding a beginners mountain bike trail, and this wasn't the trail's fault. The trail was ridable, just a little tacky. My attention wavered and I wound up in some mud along the trail, lost traction, fell over. SOMEHOW I wound up with the top of my head on the ground bent over a small log It was just soft/tacky loam, nothing hard hit my helmet - which is good because I suspect they don't focus the protection for the tippy-top of the helmet!

    It is good a photo doesn't exist, but it would have been a prize-winner

    I can't be the only one who has had an odd fall like this, so who is next?
