guess I’m making some butter 
Damn y’all I decided to ride my bike to catch the light rail to work, and one of my tires went down into the trolley car tracks and I ate shit! Bent my rim, went over the bars, and did the gravel slip and slide. Road rash on my arm, and my left leg is all fucked up so I’m limping around and yelling.
They made the damn tracks in one of the lanes of vehicle traffic, so you have to cross them if you want to get to the rail…I thought I cut my angle hard enough, but the gap is 4 inches wide and 4 inches deep x2!
Anyway, I’m just pissed and hurting. </end rant>
Dang @HeadyBearAdventures, that sounds rough. I hope you heal up fast.
That sucks, @HeadyBearAdventures. Get better quick.
Thanks fellas. It comes with the territory, and I always wear a helmet, but it was the first time I’d gotten on my bike since before the pandemic lockdown! I was totally vibing too, really finding my rhythm again, so it was jarring to say the least. I’ll he back in the saddle soon
Dang @HeadyBearAdventures, sorry but I just love the description of the whole ordeal. I was picturing it.
WOW !
I swear telling the story takes some of the sting out! Thanks for reading it 
Damn cuz, you gotta take better care of yourself! We like having ya around lol Glad not a lot of damage, sounds like. Many is the time I’ve rode late at night all messed up, only to lay my Harley down, or worse, loose it in a tight curve. lol Road rash is not fun
Haha. Were there a bunch of people standing around recording you with their phones in true 2023 fashion?
Lol, the only person who said anything to me (and there were dozens around) was a street corner missionary, and even he waited until I got up, crossed the street and did my trauma check.
Maybe I’ll see myself on TikTok tomorrow.
@HeadyBearAdventures Get better as soon as you can friend!!
That sounds scary bro, glad you made it out in one piece. Last time I rode in 2018 I went down after dabbing and riding to the bank. Ended up having surgery on my right hand, thankful I can still use it but it hasn’t been the same since. Needless to say my trimming days for extra cash are over, shit I hardly trim my own bud these days lol.
Hahaha. That’s the dream, brother. But all jokes aside, I’m glad you are okay.
Hmmmm just gave me an idea 
I may now know a way of getting out of trimming/shucking indefinitely .
@HeadyBearAdventures, you know someone was recording. Its the times, maybe you’ll make a fail’s video on you tube. Glad you’re ok my friend 
I have a question for those who have used them…. “Terploc “ Grove Bags ??? Any info good or bad is welcome.
All I’ll say is try them you’ll be pleasantly surprised how well they work.
You can try a free one here
I have some but haven’t tried them. Sounds like they work well but I don’t trust the longevity of the seals, my jars have been going strong for years and this world has enough plastic floating around.
