I had planned on riding another 50 miles today, it didn't work out that way.
At 21 miles I took a pretty big spill on the bike trail today right at where there is a stop sign for cars (not bikes or runners). It had started raining and that dark black top was slick.
I came down on my left shoulder and hip.
Besides an assortment of scrapes I have a raised hemotoma the size of a grapefruit on my hip. The worst part is I separated my left shoulder. I go to the Bone and Fracture Clinic tomorrow at 8 to have it "set" as the nurse described it.

The county guy who cuts the grass and prunes the trees saw me go down. He wasn't very far. He was to me before I could collect my senses. I'm lucky nothing broke.

Sigh

OMG you are lucky nothing got broken. It is bad enough to get injured and be sore for a while.

Oh no! I hope it heals quickly!

Wow. Glad nothing was broken but it still sounds really painful. Get well soon.

So did this happen in Michigan, or are you back home, cause that would make for a real bummer of a vacation (heck it's bad enough if you were at home).

Owww!!! Sorry to hear. You know, exercise is supposed to be energizing and help us lose weight - but it doesn't work when we get injured! trying to lose weight sucks!
