dah dah dum dum dum, another one bites the dust!
At the end of my weekly bike ride I decided to take the short cut across the field back to my friends' house where we had started the ride from. The normally dry ditch had some water in it, but I didn't think twice about it - surely my bike tire would just roll right out... but nope - I went down in the ditch and the front tire stuck hard - at which point I proceeded to flip head over handlebars and land face-first in the dirt. Luckily I only ended up with a scrape on my chin and no broken teeth or bones. My jaw was a little sore the rest of the day, but that was it. I fully expected some latent aches today, too, but there were none. Not even mild whiplash. Lucky to have escaped pretty much unscathed from my first bike accident in approximately 20 years...
