Default Wrecked My Bike Tonight

Wrecked on a off ramp because I panicked, was possible going to fast, and I wasn't paying attention. The bike's not that bad thanks to the 180 degree decline I drove off of (grass). Shifter rod is bent, windscreen broke off, and the left faring is a bit fucked up but other than that it's all right. After I stopped sliding got up picked the bike up looked at it drop it and walked about a mile called my friend got the bike back up the hill inspected it and rode home.

I meant I hope your sore shoulder does not turn out to be a worse injury than just a sore shoulder.

When I fell off my bike, I thought I sprained my ring finger. It turned out later on to be a fracture.

Glad to hear your ok. Especially since the bike is pretty fine too. You've learned something about your limits, and it will only make you a better rider.

At least you're ok. Live and learn. Bet that wont happen to you again haha. Keep getting those miles under you're belt and eventually it will take a lot for you to panic.

see. you can never be too careful with that kind of stuff. often you dont feel the effects of injuries until quite a while after the accident because of the adrenaline pumping from what just happened.
