There was one sorta-crash worth mentioning.
Was northbound on Rte2 Gov Ritchie Hwy one afternoon and about to turn into Luckys, a local convenience store, when a car brushed a little close, and the "wake" and shock of it caused the front wheel of my ped to hit the little bump of curb at the edge of the parking lot at a bad angle and jackknife the front end, throwing me over the handlebars at 32Mph.
The strange part is right after that...I had practiced shoulder rolls before in acrobatics class, as well as a "light" version of a martial art class, and with particular attention for the instance of some day having to bail a bike at speed.
Well, I lucked out in that I had been thrown off at the perfect angle to begin a shoulder roll, and did a complete one, comin up facing the 'ped, on my feet - and CAUGHT THE FRIGGIN THING, still somewhat in motion, and afore it fell over - it was like, freakin!
I stood there a second....totally weirded by the experience, then walked the 'ped to a parkin spot, kicked the stand down, and went in....passing by a wino who was tryin to decide if he actually SAW that or not...heh.
Truth is oft stranger than fiction.
