If not you'd have thought he'd have learned a lesson after his

Apparently, it was the policeman he rode into who suffered the ankle injury.
Should he have been wearing a helmet?

Given that George W's brain is somewhere else other than his head, I don't
think they make helmets that would fit is [censored].

How did he not see the policeman, they are all wearing bright
yellow reflective jackets.

Point of order Mr Chairman! There is an assumption there that there is a
brain at all in said personage!

Err, we are taking GW Bush are we not and you have to ask?
BTW didn't he fall off a MTB at his Texas ranch 3-4 years ago? We may
have a rare example of a need for training wheels here.

Doubt it, otherwise he would not have hurt his ankle.

And a Segway (duh, turn it on!) and forgetting that food (particularly
pretzels) need chewed.

"Bush, an avid and aggressive mountain biker,..."
"Bush took up hard-core bicycling a few years ago after a knee injury
forced him to quit running. His pace was known to leave even some
well-conditioned Secret Service agents huffing."
contrasted with
"...an afternoon ride at a golf resort here, scraping his hands and arms
when he hit the asphalt."
You think they'd point him towards some hard-core aggressive terrain.

You can never tell from the varied press stories which is closest to
reality but my understanding from reading between the lines of the
various stories was he was caning it and the wheels washed out on him.
At least the guy has one redeeming feature but its a pity he can't
convince more of his compatriots to cycle.

You really shouldn't assume *anything* about *anything* 😉

Two falls in 3-4 years means training wheels required - a bit harsh.
You'd better sign me up for them too.

He cant be all that bad (evil) as he does ride a bike. Better than not riding
at all?

If they did it would explain Crook and Feikh though. One helmet could
protect two "brains" - Gdubya's and B.Liars ;-)
