Better cracks in foam than cracks in skull.
Glad you're OK.
I won't post pics of injuries from my accident last month. Too gruesome.

This happened to me on the 4th of July... 
I guess I am lucky that I only lost some teeth...
The pic was in the Ambulance on the way...crossing RR tracks...standing up and something got caught in my spokes...not sure what but the fork was broke and 2 spokes were tweaked. I had no damage ANYWHERE else...odd and I don't remember much except telling the guy in the ambulance guy how to use my IPhone....
Be aware...the pic is sort of gruesome "looking"

Man, you guys are scaring me!
This is why I always wear gloves, even on the hottest summer days.

Hooligans suck! Their parents should be brought behind the barn and given the thorough beating that they should've given their kids.

Alright.
A late-teen male, and his friends. Who was/were looking for trouble.
I should have went way wide, but misjudged and suffered a glancing contact at my right elbow.
Things escalated regarding his "crew" to the point of my requesting LE involvment (I filed a report).

Is that it?
