MORCA

Rode my first wednesday evening ride @ 8th & gigling.  I opted to bring the 1×1 instead of the Superlight…shoulda brought the Superlight.  I guess I did well @ the beginning of the ride and then kinda pooped out about mid to end of the ride.  I ended up switching bikes with Chris (nice bike dude, hope i didn’t kill your ride).  Near the end of the ride I had picked up some speed and launched myself off a whoop-dee-do and saw the ground closing into my face…BLACKOUT! 

According to Peter I was knocked unconscious for a few minutes.  When I finally became conscious, all I remember was looking up @ faces circling around me like little tweety birds (DNF). The next thing I know I was bumping around in the back of an SUV.  Then off to ER I went.  Had a CT & Xray of my head & neck.  Luckily, negative for bleeding or cracks.  But the gold plate in my head did shift to the right a little.  I ended up with one big fat lip and a bump on my forehead.  Luckily for me, my nose doesn’t stick out so much (barely at all) otherwise it would be sideways right now.

 I was hoping to share my Anchor Steams on ice with you guys @ the end…OH well maybe next time.  Thanks guys (females included) for taking care of me when I was down…literally.  Peter, hope ya got enough beauty sleep the night before work–thanks for the ER trip.

 c ya later,
