Thought i'd share my injury story with you guys. About 5 months ago I
was riding some trials around the local mall. I was about maybe a foot
and a half off the ground on a fairly wide curb. I routinely hopped to
the sidewalk but somehow slightly took off wrong and landed askew on
the wheel. This sort of propelled me forward head first. This is the
part of the memory that makes me shiver. Here I am stammering forward
trying to not fall on my face with all of my weight barreling forward
and the top of my head collides with the bottom of the stop sign pole.
Luckily I am wering a helmet and the pole slides off the helmet into my
shoulder. I was really stunned and some people came over to help me
up.
The bad thing is I let my adrenaline mask the pain and continued riding
for maybe a half hour. As soon as I sat down my back seized up. The
injury probably took about 2 months to fully feel better.
I have heard about other unicycle injuries from you guys but this one I
really dont attribute to unicycling. This couldnt have just as easily
happened if I had tripped walking.
Any injuries to share?
Levi
