Good for you. I'm just glad you didn't hurt your leg again. Seen some pretty bad injuries from tipping over while still clipped in.

Ha! Hilarious.. That's classic.

And yes, I seen a dude break his arm from being at a full stop and slowly falling over while clipped in. And when I say slow I mean slow lol. Felt like I was watching an instant reply I slow motion.

That's how I bruised my ribs. We stopped for a road, looked left, looked right, looked in front of me and sees they all stopped. Full stop over my front wheel in really slow motion. Felt on my Elbow.
That year I bruised my ribs three times. First time with mountain biking, second time with snowboarding and the last time with windsurfing. Painful year :)

Yeesh, I just saw your story of falling over, I think we all have that "that tree looked solid" moments. Missed it completely with my last comment, but still good to hear you're riding!

Did a quick 9 mile ride after physical therapy yesterday evening, happy to say the ride was incident free.
