*sigh* It is such a Monday. I planned on riding the bike today since I have an hour commute to do some volunteer work this evening. I pack the night before, still running late this morning. Pull into the parking lot and wind up staring at the clouds from flat on my back. I even had my feet down and still have no idea why I fell over. And to top it all off, they canceled my class for this evening so I dont need to ride out there.

It's not even my bike, its the one Im sitting for a friend. Thank gawd there was lil damage, just some scuffs on the casing.

FML?

Make sure you go over everything before you ride it home. When mine fell due to loose gravel last year I was barely moving but the shock snapped the elbow on the front brake in half which didn't get spotted till the first time I pulled the lever on the way home and got a fist full of dot3 and no front brake

Oh my goodness! I'm glad you're alright!!

I'm having one of those days too. It just so happens mine is better now that I don't have to meet up with my ex-husband.
