First time clipless I went down, I'm pretty sure someone saw my slow motion asphalt dive. Friday, April 13th (I kid you not) 2007 I successfully avoided a pickup truck that pulled out in front of me. However, I came off the bike & shattered my right elbow which required 2 screws to put back together & almost completely separated my shoulder along with the requisite road rash down my back. Aside from that I came out pretty good & statistically speaking I wont have another severe crash for at least 11 more years.
