And, I crushed my orange
Do you remember that scene in Wayne's world when Stacy drives by and she's like, "h-i-i-i-i-i wayne". Then she slams into the parked car? If you're like me, you probably thought that was pretty funny. Well, today I left my place on my bicycle for my daily commute and I pedaled for about 100 metres and then my bike stopped immediately and I kept going, as if my bike had hit the parked car that Stacy went face first into. I thought that my u-lock was firmly affixed to my rack, but it turns out I didn't have it in the proper locked position. It dropped down into my drive train or spokes - I still don't know, and that sent me flying. Some lady who was passing by with her kid had her jaw on the ground and her eyes wide open as she yelled out, "are you okay!" Luckily for me, I was wearing my helmet and gloves, so I was no worse for the wear. Just surprised and embarrassed.
