Lost my teeth

[compo]

I had a superb ride this morning. The first ride from several that I have actually felt good and strong on the climbs and made good progress (by my standards) on the flat.

I wasn't amused when half way up a steep hill I coughed and my false teeth fell out. I stopped and expected to find them broken, but I was lucky and they are OK. A wipe off with a tissue and a flush with water out of my drink bottle and I was back in biting mode! On a serious note, I normally use fixative on my teeth when cycling so in the event of an accident they will stay in place and I am not going to choke on my dentures. This morning is the first time for ages I have forgotten.

Sorry compo, but that really does paint a fun picture!

Glad you got them back though.

Hehehe, that's brilliant!

An interesting point on the choking part though, good thinking!

Sorry, but that made me chuckle. If it's any consolation, I lost one too yesterday. Dentist pulled one out and due another couple. I will be getting falsers too at this rate!

Yes, glad the teeth survived, but I seem to have a very vivid imagination and just burst out laughing every time I picture it........sorry Compo

Once I knew I didn't have to pay out for new ones I saw the funny side, as did my wife when I came home and told her. She was in hysterics.
