My cat like reflexes allowed me to unclip while falling and safely roll. It made on helluva noise with everything crashing over.

Now I will triple check the all the fittings when switching bikes. It would been just a bit embarrassing if I actually got hurt, that it happened in the house.
Good thing you were inside with beer handy for the post crash talk. Any pics of the crash site?
