Just clipped a bike rack with my pedal going 20mph, bike was pulled from under me, the fork turns as it falls over, I land on the straight handlebars coming up from the ground full force like a spear. Winded like a motherfucker, couldn’t breathe for a minute. Fractured my sternum, absolute agony moving around (turns out every muscle above the waist bonds to the sternum) but I got to try morphine and codeine for the first time.
Half my fault for cycling too fast near racks, half the retarded design of the racks - a giant loop at waist height, with an additional tiny “foot” that extends half a metre out past the main loop at exactly low pedal height, sticking out into the cycle lane
