I find it a little strange that people post about breaking limbs on falls from bicycles...Did any of this past experience of wrecking yourself teach you how to fall?
Maybe you can teach me the right way to fall after a drunk AH in a car blows a stop sign, crushes your right knee and launches you into the middle of a busy Chicago intersection. My martial arts training failed me on that one.
