Hi all,

well today I took a nasty fall...riding home from work, its lightly raining, im on the cycle pathway which happens to go under a bridge. The pathway is damaged and very bumpy. Couple that with the rain and my speed...my rear tire slipped on the turn and the bike fell from under me. I skidded down, hitting my left side of the my body hard....and the worst part... was that my head bounced off the concrete. Luckily I was wearing my helmet, but I still feel shaken up. My head hurts (I hit the back side of it). By pain, I mean I have a headache.

Im still in disbelief that i fell. I feel stupid for now slowing down and im also pissed off because I have asked the city to repair that stretch of the path and they still have yet to act. I just e-mailed them though sharing my story with them.
