god truely does not want me on a bike, at 5am this morning while heading to work i whiped out going down mission hill. it may be because i was riding a fat girl bmx with no breaks, it may be because i 'm running on no sleep. but anyways it's time to make the bmx fixed. oh and if things come in threes i should be fine with the bianchi

It was acctualy the breaking that brought me down, i mostly brake with my right leg, i tried it with my left and... well yeah i'm an idiot.

i guess today was the day to crash......
at about 8 this morning i ended up into the top of some guys hood. i was going pretty slow. still clipped in and everything. i didn't see him untill i was looking at him face to face through the windshield of his car. he was yelling something at me but i don't understand spanish. so i just pushed if the windshield and was on my way. funny how things work out when your full of adrenaline. but i definatly feel it right now. ouch.
