You're lucky you survived your first crash. I didn't. Being dead isn't fun.
I imagine it makes posting about it a challenge...

I haven't thoroughly examined my bike yet, but the right brifter is scraped up pretty good, as is the rear derailleur. That's the part I'm a bit worried about; I'll dig into that later.

I just drove back up to where I crashed to collect my prescription sunglasses- fortunately they were right where I left them. The front lens part needs replacing though- that's pretty scraped up as well. I was starting to wonder if I really had high-sided, but looking at the spot it's clear that's what happened. I think I overreacted when the front wheel started sliding out while I was leaning left in a turn.
