because yesterday I was "riding dirty" LOL Actually there isn't much, LOL, about it. So yesterday my husband, bff, and I hit the trails for a bike ride on a nice cool fall like Saturday afternoon. When I say hit the trails, I mean that literally...at least for me. It had been raining a few hours before, so things were a bit damp, but the rain was supposed to hold out for a few hours. We did 5.5 miles, and then started on our second loop of the track, and all of a sudden my bff stopped in front of me, there was a bridge up ahead that apparently bikes weren't supposed to cross, so she stopped, and I slammed on my brakes and lost control. My bike slid across the wet trail, and i went flying. I hit the ground shoulder first, then my knees, and my leg was pushed against and landed on the handlebars. I landed in a bunch of much, lol the riding dirty part. LOL The most embarrassing part was that the trails were pretty empty, but when I fell of course i did in front of a few spectators. Just my luck. I was completely mortified and in lots of pain. I could have stopped and turned around and went back, but I painfully hopped on my bike, and finished the additional 5.5 miles. It wasn't pretty, and I only averaged like 9 .5 mph, but I did it. We did just over 11 miles total.
I didn't fully realize how much pain I was in until I carefully made my way into the car. I couldn't really move. My left leg is bruised and cut from my kneecap all of the way up my thigh, huge bruise and cuts might I add. My arms are bruised and cut. My back hurts, legs, arms, ankles and well everything else hurts too. I feel like I have been hit by a truck. I will heal though. I know it was just a freak accident, and I am kind of proud of myself for not giving up.
