Thanks! I'm feeling much better today. I'm gonna try a test ride on Sunday to see how it feels. I really hate being off the bike. The ribs are still quite sore, but are better.

Thanks slvoid. That is pretty much my understanding of it. I was over the bars pretty hard leading up to the intersection. I was sprinting for all I was worth. I had visions of Lance or perhaps Cipolini. Ok, a fat Lance or Cipolini.
