I haven't crashed since 1995. In the 7 years I've been recording rides on Strava, I've done 13,000 miles without crashing even once. It's not really something a lot of us do a lot of, or even any of, so when you talk about crashing dozens of times, and you say you're, what, 25? it doesn't fill us with admiration for your bikehandling skills.
I crashed a bunch having to carry stuff in terrible weather. Since ive moved to cali ive done like 4k miles and this was my first real crash (the car one a month ago doesn't really count cause I was drunk and asking for it.) You try holding a fountain drink in your hand navigating on ice, its sketchy, stuff happens
