Of course, in the first mile on the way to the park I cornered at a blistering ~7mph and hit gravel and spun out. Bloody knee and skinned shoulder were the result. Not a scratch on the bike, so that is good.

It's frustrating that the one time I go without a helmet for the most leisurely cruise I crash.
