i crashed my bike!!! (slow motion cycling crash)

today i crashed my bike while brake testing, luckily i know how to think fast or it could have been much worse.

shoutout to 'craighoppers' trousers for the elastic between the legs which aided in my ability to survive this crash.

I'm not sure I understand. You were going at quite a slow speed. It couldn't have been that much worse could it?

[gearhead]

good thing you were paying attention, face plant! lol

You could have killed a tree!
I hope you get a house soon.

Landed it! I was riding thru a golfcourse loaded up with fishing tackle and rode into a "puddle"... that was actually a hole i managed to do a similar vault of the bars and the bike stayed uprite with its front wheel up to the hub in mud/water.
