part 2 of the cycling related/drug sounding issues //
So I'm now the proud owner of a cheapish road bike - took it out for a ride tonight with my friend.
Not five minutes into riding and I've crashed into a traffic light pole.
I saw it coming. I subconsciously braked but didn't brake on time. I walked it off despite the horrified/amused onlookers in their cars. Broke the standard refractive light that came with the bike...
HOW HOW HOW do you ride in a straight line, or at least without crashing into anything?
Even when the path was wide and empty I couldn't ride in a straight line - I veered to the right a lot. When cars came I would panic and just dismount. Don't even want to think about riding during the day when there would be people and more crash hazards about.
