Bikes: Still have a few left!

THE PERFECT FALL: 33F, foggy with patches of black ice. Riding past the "Igglesia Christo" sp? church, took the corner to fast, slid into a curb & down I went. I knew I would fall when I saw I couldn't avoid the curb. Went right over onto a grassy hillside, tucked & rolled down, about 3 or 4 rotations which made me dizzy. Got some mud on my clothes & the bars were off center but I was quickly on my way & changed into clean clothes when I reached work. No road rash, just a sore shoulder & a couple small abrasions on my legs & arms where I hit a few rocks. Gotta slow down & be more careful now that its Winter.
