Had a crash last weekend.

Sprained my wrist and fractured my right middle finger.

Feeling better now. I’m flying to Peru. One good thing is that my middle finger got me boarded to my flights early. (On the grounds that I didn’t want to have difficulty sticking my carry on in the overhead and hold up everyone else).

I was at the bike shop today and a friend came in with contusions and lacerations around his right eye. He was commuting home from work with two lights up front an rear lights as well. Someone riding a bike without lights ran head on into him braking his top and down tube a couple of inches from the head tube. They were packing it up to send it to Specialize I think.
