So this happened last Sunday, hahaa. Hadn't ridden for like 6 weeks due to the virus and weather. Only 3 minutes into the ride I'm mobbin' down the street and the mesh on some chainlink fence got blown by the wind, grabbed my handlebar and then I got to see the inner workings of my elbow, hahaa. The pic of the hole was after the Doc cleaned it up, numbed it and pulled it closer together by hand. When it first happened it was so wide that I could see the entire elbow joint and I was wondering if it would even go back together, lol, my wife couldn't even look at it and she's usually cool with it when I do these things, hahaa. 8 stitches later and I'm good to go. I was on my Vimana Slope (since everyone always asks) and yes, most importantly the bike is okay. #justafleshwound #thebikeisstilltryingtokillme
