Curved into a slight turn, noticed more twigs I needed to avoid and BAAAAAMMMMMM I hit a split treet that was portruding out into the path. Fell and took a skid on my left side. Scraped up and left wrist a little mingeled and left palm killing me. Banged my head and nice to have a helmet! Took a quick glance of the bike and it looked ok.

The last half mile to work took a long time it seemed. Couldnt apply pressure on my left wrist and it hurt to put my palm on any part of my bars.

Just another day!
