Hmmmm. I've been in two major bike crashes in my life. Once, me and some friends made a makeshift bike ramp in a friends backyard. I was the one to test it. I went too early however...Went off the ramp. We didnt realize the grass was so dewy still...I landed...And immediately turned practically completely over. I slid for a few feet basically on my shoulder/neck. I got up, brushed myself off and went to lean against a nearby tree.
That was around the time where i felt my collarbone start to grind against itself. it was like someone took a baseball bat to my shoulder. Fun times.
The second crash was a few years later. Me and a friend were racing down my street to another friends place. I yelled to him to let me make the turn first, as I was on the left side of the road, the same side as my friends house. If my friend made the turn before me, we'd crash into eachother. Guess what happened?
He turned. I crashed, full speed, into his side. He flew into the ground, i flew over my handlebars. I landed on my back in the middle of the road 12 feet away from my bike. I didn't feel anything. I just stared at the sky and called for my friend, seeing if he was alright. He said he was.
I just started laughing. My friend eventually got caught up by it too. Me and him, we were lying in the road, just...Laughing, like maniacs for a full 5 minutes. My friend we were gonna visit heard us and came out to see what the hell we were doing...Naturally as soon as he saw our bikes he was concerned. me and my riding friend got up, dusted ourselves off, picked gravel out of our clothes/hair and went to see the damage we did to eachothers bikes.
my bike was in better condition...The handlebars were just misaligned. We went to my friends bike and lifted it up...The front wheel flat fell off and rolled further down the street. The laughter continued a nd we went to the pool shortly after.
Good times. Good times.
