The road my Uncle lives on is very steep and my Uncle lives on the bottom. One time I brought my bike there and my chain broke while going down it and I smashed into his shed he has. It hurt really bad.

Broke an arm falling off on a steep hill. Smashed into the side of a car, and slid across it.
Oh, and I cycle with a slightly buckled wheel now.

I've had two accidents on a bike. The first one happened when I was 8. There was this party and so we went biking and skating around the lake. I was going faster than most people, so at one point I tried to pass someone and ended up riding right into a cement ditch. The bike ended up coming up from under me and bounced off my head. I had a bruise on my arm and it hurt a little to move it. Besides that I was fine.

The second time was when me and a friend went to this construction site on our bikes. We had climbed up to the top of the tallest mound. We were going to ride down, but my friend said it was too steep, so he walked down the way we came up. However, I didn't because it wasn't that steep. I wasn't as scared as he was, so I rode down it going pretty fast and I had great control. However, when I got to the bottom, I ended up hitting a enourmous tree root(yes, a tree root in the middle of a construction zone) and I flipped off my bike. I picked it up and walked it back over to my friend's house. The only problem was that my glasses were messed up. A quick shop to Lens Crafters fixed that up though.

Other than that I haven't had many big bike accidents, but I've had some small ones like falling off or having the chain pop off. I'm normally a good rider. I should get my bike out again and do some riding soon.

I remember one time my friends and I built a big jump and we were going off it all day long. Anyway the sun was setting and we were going the last few times. I went off, landed ok, but then hit a crack and flipped head-over-handlebars and landed on my face. I had a knot the size of a golf ball above my right eye. Ever since, I've been kinda weary about going off larger jumps.

A few days ago the neighbor kid was riding his bike and I asked if I could use it quick to try some tricks. I did some wheelies, endos, bunnie hops. I started doing j-hops (pull a wheelie then jump with the back tire) and one time pulled up too hard, landed on the back of the rear tire and took a spill onto my ass in the middle of the street. My tailbone was a bit sore for the night.

I've crashed tons of times on a bike. Havn't ridden much since I got my license, though...

When I was 8, I bailed on my scooter at about 30mph, fell face down, and severely skinned my chin and belly.

What's funny is that at first, it didn't hurt so bad, but then my mother put rubbing alcohol on my wounds and the scream could be heard miles away

I never had any major bails supprisingly, I used to bike 6-7 miles daily. However my friend ran into a parked car got a concussion and almost died. And yes you heard me correctly, a parked car.

Yeah, I haven't really ridden a bike since I started driving, but I had a few good crashes. I've done a flip twice, and another time, I was standing up pedalling hard when the chain popped off and I went down. Luckily, the bike didn't land on me any of the times. Actually, the two flips I did, I didn't get hurt at all either time.

I only remember falling off a bike once. It was at this little dirt area my friends and I had converted into bike jumps, even though we rarely ever "got air" off them. We were chickens. Well one day, I decided I wanted to be brave and actually go fast over the big dirt pile. Mm. Bad idea. I went flying, as did my bike, and I got covered in dirt. It was in my mouth, in my hair, in my shoes, under my clothes...

So I never did that again. And I think that's the only time I've fallen off a bike, besides of course when I was first learning how to ride one.

I still laugh at my brother all the time, he broke his arm from falling off his bike, and there wasn't even an obstacle in his way to cause the fall. He just fell.

I used to ride my bike every day when I was about 15. I rode about 24mph down a quiet street, then a nasty crack made me tumble all over the road. Some guy across the street yelled, "Are you okay!?". I got up grumbling in pain. My back, knees and right elbow got messed up.

What's even worse is when you crash into another bike. It was dark outside, my friends and I were playing cop-chase on our bikes. His little brother was the criminal. My friend Jake, came across the street saying, "There he is!". I didn't know where Jake was and I was riding up the street, fast. Just as he turned a bit more he was at a 45 degree angle and I rammed right into him. I fell over him and fell on my arm really hard while he got scraped up underneath my bike. His brother laughed so hard.

I haven't used bikes for several years. And I don' knowt if I will do in the future either.

I can tell you about when I bailed once, though. I was riding my bike on a gravel road during the summer so it was very dry (and more painful if you happened to fall).

The bike started to wobble and I was thrown over the handlebars. Luckily, it wasn´t anything major since my arms only got a little grazed. But it still hurted.

Another time, I fell right into a bunch of stinging nettles.

I haven't ridden a bike since I was a kid.
Back then, my mom was crazy strict ,and I rarely ever got to ride anywhere besides the sidewalk in front of our block. I used to try to do tricks and crash right into these prickly bushes just to entertain myself. My legs and arms would be covered with bruises at the end of the day and it really freaked my mom out, haha.
My only real bad experience was when I was zooming through this narrow bike trail on a hill and skidded right down the rocky side. I didn't break anything but I got beat up real bad, and the back of my thumb ripped up so much that you could see the bone. Gross.

I was riding my bike and barely managed to dodge out of the way of a telephone pole...

....and right into the steel cable that held it stable. Hey, I was 7.

Hmm...

I don't have many spectacular wipeouts, because the times I fall over it tends to be me hopping off the bike and stumbling around before I actually wipe out. I've shinned myself pretty badly on my one bike, though. Having one of these pedals slammed into your shin by your weight on the other pedal isn't much fun.

Yes, we musn't lose that position of jackass

Only time I ever bailed off my bike was while biking around a high school track when I was younger....flew off right into a tree. Hurt like hell. Broke my arm

I vaguely remember how it even happened, it just....happened...

Just a few weeks ago, I bailed on my bike in front of my house...

Like, wet roads, a 90 degree turn, and breaking DONT EXACTLY GO TOGETHER

Needless to say, helmets save lives, wear them, Im a believer, yaddah yaddah.

I had a minor concussion and neck pain for the next few days

Oddly enough, I was added to staff because they needed a jackass on staff.

Sometimes I think I'm getting too nice and may be in danger of losing this job, so I periodically pop in and do things like that. And it's not like anyone cares what goes on in this topic anyway, so...

Hey, it isn't a month yet! Give me a BREAK. Off topic poster. I wonder why you're still a local mod.
