Hi all....just wanted to vent out of frustration for my own stupidity. So I have been driving a lot lately to work because I lost my goggles thus making it just to cold bike around...Today, was a bit warmer, so I thought I could handle it...

mounted my equpiment on my bike, put on the kickstand, went to close the garage..and bam...bike leaned over because of the weight and fell, bag hitting the ground first.. I scratched my brake shifters (very minor) and no body bike frame damage.... i cycled for a bit and the bitter wind against my eyes was to much for me....went home, changed and drove in.

So sitting on my desk..and I see it. A dent on my screen. I don'tk now exactly how it was caused as it was protected by the clothing....but oh well....it happened. Im pissed off at myself for my own idiotic actions.

1. I should have known better than to bike without proper gear
2. I know better than to lean the bike on the driveway on the side with the weight on it.

im just pissed...that my MBP has a dented screen with a slightly blurred area on the screen. it is hardly noticeable...but I notice it.

Oh well....I guess this is the 'risk' factor when transporting a laptop. From now one, im going to be more careful, and im going to look into using a laptops sleeve for added protection.

In the two years of commuting, and three falls...on the side of the laptop, this is the first form of physical damage i've had.

argh...
