    Does anyone else suffer from the "its always me" sydrome.?
    I our group, if anyone is going to have an SPD topple/ panic brake topple/ over the bars 'incident' / front wheel washout it is always me 🙂 🙂

    today, while negotiating a short, steep descent, I got thrown off the back and landed on my arse – bending the back wheel and snapping spokes in the process. The drop was steep and levelled out really quickly; All I remember is going into some kind of idiotic manual and pointing towards the sky (and landing bum first still attatched to the pedals/ bars…)

    Think the rear bottomed out badly and the front went straight up as I was leaning back so much 🙂
