Had my first wipe out today.
Was taking a turn and misjudged how close the curb was and woops! went over the handlebars but, thankfully, bike just happily landed in the tall grass.
This would have no big deal, except I had an audience! There was a family walking along on the other side of the street watching, and better yet a cop was right behind me haha.
He thought I had a seizure and pulled over to ask me if I was ok. I am a big guy and I am assuming that made it into a bit of a comical event for everyone involved.
The only good thing to come from the whole ordeal is the cop just shook his head and went on his way. I got to pedal off with no ticket and no injurys (if you dont count my pride).
