Got pretty lucky though, no injuries, and the only damage was to the rear QR skewer (which is going to be replaced anyway with new wheels), some scuffs on the left pedal (easily replaced if I really want), and a couple small scuffs on the left brifter which is a minor drag but not the end of the world. And a small scuff on my new shoes but who cares. Frame, saddle, and even the bar tape on the left was completely untouched; I was surprised the bar tape never touched the ground.

Oh well, dumping the bike was bound to happen once and it happened exactly as expected...going 1 mph. I'm just glad I got out of it with barely any damage.
