Fall in the Winter

Time on Bike: 1 Hour 10 Minutes
Distance Travelled: 20.06 Miles
Weight: 14st 8lb

Totals: 1 Hour 58 Minutes, 30.37 Miles

Today was the first fall, the first time I've crashed off the bike. Coming round the corner in Lavenham the smooth road surface, the wet roads and my speed (and to some extent my over confidence) all contributed to the wheels skidding out from unedr me and me taking a slide along the road. One grazed hip, elbow and knee later. All my clothing has to show for it is a small hole in the knee of my trousers and the black muck of the road up my sleeve! Have tended to my injuries and am now starting to feel the bruising in my back and collarbone. Don't think I'll be going to badminton tonight, certainly not after I've cycled home!!

1,969.63 to go!
