SO. i got a bike. a really useful tool for getting to the BSB in 3 minutes. however, i should have thought about how clumsy i am on my feet before i decided to purchase a two-wheel contraption potentially harnessing many worse accidents than just tripping over my own two feet. well, i'm doing pretty well considering i haven't ridden a bike this much in about 10 years.
see, i usually have a daily trip. not a drug trip, thank you. but i usually almost wipe out because i happen to fall out of my own walking rhythm quite often. i look like a fool and putting me on a bike probably doesn't help. i already had my 'trip of the day'.. on my bike. well, there's these tunnels that lead into the russell quad/courtyard. there's a pretty steep incline before you reach these tunnels (the quad/courtyard used to be a parking garage). and going up that incline is so much easier on two feet than it is on two wheels. well i decided i would just walk my bike up that dreaded slope, and then my leg didn't quite make it over the back wheel... so the bike felt over onto my other leg causing me to fall to the ground. lovely. and this guy just walked past me, staring. no 'are you okay?' or even laughing. no response. RUDE.

i'm totally that type of guy. the one that stares at you weird and makes you feel like the biggest cluts in the world. and afterwards, i debate on whether to add in a few chuckles or a rolling of the eyes.
JK!
