I just took a nice spill off my bike while riding over to the video store. One of those where after it's over you stand up very carefully and are completely amazed that nothing is broken. Since I lack a digital camera, I shall give the lounge MS Paint!
I scraped up one hand, my elbow, and I have a painful ache in my right leg, but everything appears to still be more or less in piece.
I was jumping off of a curb and my bike suddenly decided it really didn't want to be in the gear I put it in, and wasn't really sure which one it wanted to pick, so it kind of tried all of them at once, my pedals locked up, and my normally stable and easily steerable bike took on the handling characteristics of a dead cow.
I'm actually lucky I fell off where I did, because if I hadn't I would have gone straight into a parked car, and I'm pretty sure that would have hurt worse than the ground did.
My elbow really stings. Of course removing all the skin on a bit of asphalt will do that.
My arm hurts.
