Meh... never, until today, did I realize just how slippery that wood on the Brooklyn Bridge is when wet. Coming around the Manhattan side tower, swerved VERY slightly around a pedestrian standing in the dark in the bike lane out of view and the bike just slid right out from under me. Felt like one usually does when skiing and the ski just goes down the path; in this case, into a walking pedestrian in the other lane with myself following, just sliding on down on my right side.

No damage, not even ripped pants, which says a lot about just how slippery the stuff is. I must've slid like 25 feet.
