Sorry, I have not been interacting with the group the last couple of days. I took a bad tumble on my bike yesterday and ended up being helicoptered to a regional hospital. Multiple abrasions, 24+ stitches in my face and 12 in my left hand. 2 dislocated fingers a torn ligament and fracture with my left ring finger. This is something we hear from LiterateHiker (but my face is not so cute). Any one for damaged goods? (I am told women are attracted to men with scars and stubble).

Damn! Those microphones can be rough on the bod. Sorry about that.

Typo, comes from typing with one hand.

@JackPedigo I've been watching a Netflix show where someone got beat to death with a mike stand and I jumped to conclusions.

Were you on a roadbike?

@Condor5 It was a mountain bike. I was headed for a dirt road. My other bike s a 10 speed racer.

@JackPedigo fast, slow, moderate speed? I've had crashes in all modes on my mountainbike; but, I'd still rather crash on dirt than pavement. I hope your recovery is quick (relatively), and no rehab required. I won't road ride, too dangerous where I now live.

@Condor5 I was on the shoulder (even on this, a main road, there is usually very little traffic - except when a ferry is in) and there was grass on the other side. Lots of gravel was removed from me and, in one place, some grass. I have been down this road dozens of times. It was my fault for not rechecking the brakes after I had adjusted them.

@JackPedigo well, my friend, I wish you a speedy recovery.
