Sorry about the bike. Try not to give it up. Millions of miles are logged each day without incident. There is an assumed risk with cycling, as with driving, skydiving, skiing, and golf. If you''re really concerned, take up mountain biking. I now do 2-3 days a week on the trails and 2-3 on the road. The trails are awesome.
