Had to use leg as a tire brake coming down a hill.
Donโt ask. 
Had to use leg as a tire brake coming down a hill.
Donโt ask. 
Ouch! What happened?
Mf'r! I TOLD you not to ask.
I'm a flatlander from West Texas now living in the Palouse hills of Eastern Washington State with a new, untuned, bike.
Brakes weren't set tight enough by a long shot.
Better spray some chlorine dioxide on that bro.
Ouch.
I didnโt know that it could be used as an ebrake thanks for enlightening me
Poor bike handling skills. What can I say๐๐๐
Yeah, it was a pretty stupid play on my part for sure. Didn't have my brakes set up properly and was coming down a hill. Hilarity ensued.
Ouch, looks painful. Get well soon!
Ouch, don't forget the comfrey ๐
I would do something like this exactly when I don't have any comfrey.
Gah, if only there was someone selling some on nostr ๐. Plantain, calendula and camomile are also vulneraries too, just not as fast healing as comfrey....
I think you are starting to get this marketing thing after all ๐
Geez!! ๐ฌ
Outch... but as good old Nietzsche said: "What doesn't kill you makes you stronger"
The major thoroughfare cross traffic at the red light I was plunging toward was a great incentive to discard pain.
Had a similar experience once when trying no brakes fixed gear, and I had to shove my shoe between the fork and front tire. Iโm imagining what that would have been like had I not had shoes ๐ฌ
It beats broken ribs or a brain injury. I donโt need to know the story: you made the correct call.
Doxxed your leg! I always thought you were a black guy
