No. I was screwing around on an empty road after not being on a bike for a week. I was swerving and leaning and I just fell (fell on the NDS too... it seems I always fall on the NDS) at 25mph. Handlebars became misaligned with the fork, shifter canted inward, and sustained damage as you saw a few posts back. Even though I was wearing a long sleeve shirt under my jersey, my elbow got scraped up pretty badly. I guess it's just due to friction with the cloth, because the long sleeve shirt only has a small tear in it. I'll be back on the bike in a couple of days. Also pretty bruised up on my left thigh, left knee, and left elbow. It sucks because I'm left handed.
