Plus I now think I like the wider tires on my touring bike. Fair assessments? It did take 60,000 miles to have such a crash.
But Dr. said, I ever re-injure that shoulder- that is it.
I didn't get any dire warnings of the doctor about re-injuring my shoulder, but then, I didn't ask and he did say I only suffered bruising. I guess we're all a little more careful on corners after a crash, that's only sensible. I think the problem starts if we start taking it too far and letting fear take over from caution.
