Following the "accident" I find myself slowing down a lot as I go into corners or even just down hill when I know there's a slight bend at the bottom. It's fear, I know. I had the same problem with downhill after my over the handlebar experience in France when I was 19. Coming down a massive hill on my way to the swimming pool with Benoit, in Tournus, I discovered the local authority had shingled the road. The bike wasn't my own and thanks to the state of the road and the bike I ended up with a front wheel wobble that resulted in a head first dash onto the asphalt and holes in elbow, hip and knee. The elbow bears the scar to this day! Same elbow, hip and knee that I damaged last week!!! We never learn.
1,901.08 to go!!!!
