landed on my shoulder and all i heard was POP POP POP! when i got up i KNEW i was hurt and called emergency right away. i had to semi crawl back to the entrance of the trail and get someone to help me and help get my bike. the first people i waved down actually told me i had to ask someone else cuz they were busy jogging:not amused:....
none the less after a trip to the hospital, i was informed i broke my collar bone in two places and will take at least 8 weeks to heal...
what a week for biking....
Double OUCH!!!

First your broken bones. Then the ignorant joggers.
