First off, welcome to the board....a fellow New Yorker huh? Why did you have a sore foot? Well, at least you were only 5 miles away from home....imagine being 50 miles from home with a sore foot, no phone.
Imagine being 18 miles from home with a broken wrist and cuts all over your body. Sticking out your thumb to try to hitch a ride home or to the hospital or somewhere and getting no help at all. Biking to the nearest pay phone and calling home to see if anyone could pick you up, but no one's there. Biking the whole 18 miles home cuz no one will help. I am just glad my bike was okay. I dunno what I would've done if it'd been broken... I doubt I would have walked the whole 18 miles back... haha. I probably would have had to call for an ambulance... and that would totally have sucked.
