Had my first big crash yesterday too ;)

No ice, just some extrmely dodgy tarmac...knee is swollen like a balloon, elbow has a MASSIVE bruise on it and everything else just aches like I've been pummelled :rolleyes:

Pedal on bike is a bit mangled but everything else seems OK - tbh couldn't be bothered to look this morning as I was feeling extremely sorry for myself.

One of the benefits of riding a lowracer recumbent is that you don't have very far to fall.

Yes. I fell off my Ryan Vanguard years ago, and it just sort of toppled over, leaving me still clipped into it lying on the floor.:smile: The othe rgood thing about it was that I could go to sleep on it on the way home from a night shift.
Hope you recover soon, Sayek ... at least your bike isn't damaged.

It is cold, therefore is icy, so take it easy, ditch the helmet and get some common sense...

You think that drive will make you safe? If you drive the way you ride you are just as likely to have a crash.
