Recovered from my last accident – ​​BionicOldGui

As I mentioned in my last post I ended my group ride last week by falling over while getting off the bike. I fell on the derriere pretty hard, as well as the head. My head was well protected by my helmet, and later that day I got a replacement with an even better safety rating from my bike shop. My head was fairly unscathed thanks to the helmet. I got a concussion which thankfully didn’t affect my cervical spine, but it hurt my neck muscles for a few days. My back was fine, no breaks, but the natural support provided by my glutes took the brunt of it so those muscles were very sore. I rode easy for a few days but was still able to train my upper body hard. Yesterday was my first longer and harder ride and everything was much better. It’s nice to learn from a mistake like the one I made and then bounce back from it.
