As I said in my last post I finished my group ride last week and got off my bike. I landed on my derriere very hard and my head. The head was well protected by my helmet, and later that day I received a replacement with a guarantee of better protection from my bike shop. My head was not too damaged by the helmet. I had a whiplash that luckily didn’t affect my cervical spine but it did make my neck hurt for a few days. My back was fine, no fractures, but the natural padding provided by my glute muscles took so hard that those muscles were very sore. I walked easily for a few days, but I was able to train the upper body. Yesterday was my first long and hard ride, and everything felt great. It’s good to learn from a mistake like the one I made, and then bounce back.
