I would love to have joined, but I can’t bike right now. I’m at home recovering because I broke my knee…on a bike…because I got hit by a car.

So I thank everyone who was there for fighting the good fight!

The same thing happened to me last year, hope you feel better. If you need surgery, be ready cuz it hurts. And do your PT

Doctor says I most likely will not need surgery, so I’m still hoping that’s the case. But afterword I’ll probably stick to e scooters over bikes. I like how scooters give more maneuverability. (For example, I was almost hit while riding my scooter too, but I was able to jump out of the way). They are also easier to stop and start again.

Saaaame with the scooter however I can’t ride yet cuz the motion of stopping / starting is too much currently. I lament how I hurt my right knee and not my left.
