Bike crash
lieb
May 18, 2026
Evidently one of my riding buddies and I had a different idea of the route
and managed to collide at an intersection. Him being much larger than me, I
came away worse for the ware. I hit my face, broke a dental bridge and
suffered a concussion. It's been a week and I am just getting to where I can
use the computer even though my vision is still impaired to a degree.
This crash eliminates the summer tours I had planned for May and June. We'll
see beyond that. The good news is I'll have more time to spend with my
grandkids. Crashing of course is always a risk when bicycle riding. Of course
I ware a good helmet and ride carefully, but there are just too many
unknowns, so it's just par for the course. In the past i've broken my
clavicle and bruised my ribs, but this is my first head injury. I seem to
be getting better every day so no reason not to expect a full recovery. Still
hoping for some bike camping trips latter in the summer. In the meantime it's
one day at a time.
