My last good spill I ended up on the handle bars...
Mine, I was riding with a friend on the bike path up near the river here that leads to a park... a medium sized dog ran out in front of me, went to take a bite out of my buddy, it got a bit freaked out at something and took off in front of me again... hit it doing about 35km/h... luckily I'd just gotten the bike and didn't have toeclips installed yet, I went over the bars, landed on my palms and elbows and remember thinking to myself "wow, my sunglasses are really flying far.. I must... OH **** THAT HURTS!"
Had a fine wrist sprain and my arms looked like someone had spit chewed gristle out on their plate... but I rode home the 4km or so in 7th gear with my arms up.
I took the biggest beating of my adult life from something named "Elmo" - how sad is that?
