Or maybe it was my first commute on my Trek 620, trying to ride up onto a bridge, misjudging my speed and having the front wheel come down just as I was hitting the bridge- stopped me dead cold from 5 MPH and slamming my lower abdomen right into the stem- but I didn't go over the bars (and the stem struck just "north" of the "tender" area). I had witnesses both times. That was cool. I'm sure on the inside, they were all pointing and laughing.

However, unlike those incidents, aside from some very minor bumps, my pride was bruised the most. In all seriousness, I hope your knee gets better quickly.

But that's not as funny as the pointing and laughing Simpsons kid.



To state it clearly- it was intended to be funny, not rude- my apologies if you were offended.
