When I hit, I folded a Yield sign all the way to the ground and something popped the cover off the seat rails, exposing the metal (titanium) that holds the seat on. Yeah, and I was squeezing the seat with my legs.. the rails impaled my right calf. 3 surgeries, 5 weeks on my back. It was bad ..
I have done 6 century rides (100+ miles) and one Half Marathon since then. anything with wheels and super fast, I love it.  |
My God, you are blessed to be alive. I travel Lookout Mountain all the time...are you saying you were hanging on for dear life via the impaled leg?
