Friday night I had a Boo Boo! ;-D
My bike, "Affectionately knows as "Cleopatra", is over 10 years old, and in good shape for her age, having only endured one complete working on in all those years.
I was riding down a residential street, in Long Beach, last night, on my way home from work about 1120pm when, despite my lights, I somehow found a little bump in the road, at 5mph, that sent me head over handle bars to the pavement.
When I got up, and looked at the bike the front wheel, and part of the fork were lying away from the main bike, at a clearly unnatural position.
Clearly, we had a problem. ;-D
The Fork looked like someone had taken a saw to cut it completely thru.
The Full details, with pictures, and updates, including about a trip to the ER, yesterday (Good News!), can be found here:
