Binning it is never nice

Carousel short title:

Binning it is never nice

Coming off the bike is never nice.

I never crashed a bike when I was 20 stone so I wonder if the extra “padding” I had would've helped cushion the fall? It's all irrelevant now, the fact is that skin, bone and muscle take a bash when you fall off, asphalt is very unyielding and lycra is about as protective as your mum's best doiley.

Crashed Carbon?

Hi,

I just got my first full carbon bike-a pristine, near new 2010 Wilier Mortirolo (with upgrades!) that I bought for a bargain price from the original owner who bought it then had 'back problems' (I think he preferred playstation to real exercise) so had literally ridden it to the shops once. It was beautiful, and I'd been keeping my eyes open for literally months to find the best deal possible.
