Wish I had had the forethought to do that about 10 days ago. I was on a group ride with 30 or 35 riders, going about 20 mph when someone in front of me overlapped a wheel in front of them and went down. I heard a scream, saw bikes scissors in front of me, hit the brakes (my bike stopped!), apparently flipped and landed on my right shoulder breaking the collarbone right next to the shoulder. It required a plate and some screws. Not sure how my left hand broke at the same time but it needed two pins for about 6 weeks. A plate, some screws, some pins, and some staples to clip the incision shut, heck, I could have stopped at Lowe's on the way home.
I'm not sure if I could have bunnyhopped the mess in front of me. Might have been worth a try in hindsight. Oh well. A few months and I'll be back riding.
