not to worry... been there done that... I suspect most of us have....

mine was at a light waiting for traffic. car in front of me must have thought I had vanished. I dropped down below their rear end out of sight after waiting for what seemed like forever. just was not watching what I was doing and lost my balance. oh well. am more careful now though. was funny when it happened.

How embarrassing. Don't tell anyone about it even on one of those dumbass bike forums. Try to forget it ever happened... until next time.

That's ok. I'm sure NO ONE saw you

I personally have done it not once, but twice in a crowded 4 way intersection (not both times on the same day, at least). I'm not sure if all the traffic came to a complete stop because they were concerned, or just laughing too hard to drive over me.
