Second off - no injuries!

[SpokeyDokey]

Fell off my bike literally 30 meters from my house. Got back on, arm hurt. Figured it was nothing. Pain persists, A&E. 6 hours. Broken elbow. Bugger.

Sorry about that -sounds really painful. You're drugged up I hope - will hurt like hell later..

How did that happen?

Happened exactly 25 hours ago now! I just hit my pedal on a kerb which jerked my bike 90 degrees, throwing me off forward, doing a roll and having my helmet save me from a potentially bad injury - it's quite scratched..

I had my first off 3 weeks ago - took a big chunk out of the side of my helmet - but absolutely no head or neck pain! The rest of me hurt though!

Very hot topic helmet wearing but all I know is that my bonce would've been badly cut at best without my helmet on; and possibly a whole lot worse.

Here's to a speedy recovery for you.

Is this a record; 2 offs in just under 3 weeks?

A couple of months ago I hit the tarmac twice in about 12hrs! Got left hooked on my way home from work in the evening then slid out on a salted roundabout the next morning at about 15-20 mph. Continued the journey both times but the second one resulted in me arriving at work a bit bloodied.....

You need a fosca crash test jersey.

Oh, I have one of those, got it before the crashes. Wore it to work the day after my offs

My missus has banned me from buying one.... She has been through a whole marriage with me on bikes.

And some people say don't bother with helmets!

some people are idiots. why use water? everyone knows diesel floats on top of it.

Sand! although that probably would have brought you to a standstill so no better off!
