so I was out riding my coker, and I was going for a new high speed
record, and I almost got it...but unfortunately, I got my first high
speed UPD I was riding down the hill going as fast as I possibly
could, and if I had stayed on I think I would have made it...but
halfway down the hill I realized I was leaning way too far forward and
the ground was coming closer, disturbingly fast. so I decided to jump
and hope for the best. I tried to do that tuck and roll thing, and it
kinda worked, I only have minor injuries. so I tucked my head and tried
to roll on my shoulder, but I kinda landed more on my side...I hit my
hip real hard and my hands kinda hard, so now there's two little holes
in my hand and one HUGE scrape on my butt. I'd take a picture, because
its a rather impressive wound, but, you know, its on my butt. I think
theres one on my knee too though, I only just started feeling
it...yeah, theres one there too, and it hurts, but its not very big.
when I checked the cycle computer, my top speed was 18.8 miles per
hour, and my fastest EVER was 19.2. SO CLOSE!! so in conclusion...that
was fun.

to give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
