one of the first crashes i got into was both embarassing and maddening at the same time. i was riding on peachtree st. at the main train station here in atlanta, really busy area... anyway, these stupid kids (teenagers acutally) were running out in the road in front of cars, thinking it was a grand ol time. so i'm going by, when all of a sudden out of the blue this kid jumps out from in front of a parked car and shoves me. i'm going at a fairly quick pace, so when he hits me i start to go over the bars. unfortunately, my feet never came out of the clips, so me and the bike go completely over, i land on my face, feet still clipped in, and the bike is on top of me on a really busy street. my glasses were broken since i landed on my face, and there was so much laughter from everyone it sounded like a comedy club. the only person that asked if i was allright was a taxi driver who said he almost ran over one of the kids. i couldn't get up in time to go after the kid, cause he ran off, but man was i pissed. not a good day.
