Aye... glad it's almost winter for one reason only: softer landings!
Yes, new month, new road rash. Going home from work on Friday, feelin' good... nice tailwind going down the pathway ramp off Glenmore Trail. Speed was probably a bit high, but the angle I turned at would've been fine on the road tyres. Except that just this week I threw the knobbies back on the 'Cross bike to get used to some trail/off-road again. Well, apparently the angle at which you lose contact with the road is less than that of my slicks... Bike slid out from under me and slam... right hip/elbow/shoulder say hello to pavement. Well, more like "hey pavement, long time no see... NOT!"
So tired of the stinging showers, polysporin, and uncomfortable nights...
