Unhappy I fall down and go boom

I was JRAing down Mullholland and my wheels just slipped out from under me.




At least the bike is ok...I think. I feel like Vino, only without the doping and the Borat accent.

Heal up and get better! I wish your tumble had turned out like mine. No blood on the dancefloor with me.

I thought I needed stitches but the doctor said the skin that needed to be stitched was still on the pavement.

I've had worse injuries... off road.

I need more booze.

Was that near the loop? Even if it was on the road near the loop, it's dangerous... That place is hungry for riders! Get well soon!
