Not easy to do with a monocoque frame.

I find that the best method of prevention is for me to stop riding like a muppet.

I'm off to join a soprano choir.....

Hum,
very strange...
That`s why they call it `mo no coque`...

it`s really difficult to hurt yourself with that..




 




I was riding downhill on a negative camber stretch when ambition outweighed riding ability as I attempted to jump some rocks.  The back end slid away and lodged on a rock whilst the front end did the same and the bike toppled on it's side with me under it.

Meanwhile the laws of motion were acting upon my 175lbs and I had a leg trapped either side of the frame.  Stationary bike + inertia = a very nasty accident indeed.

Since no method of contraception is 100% effective, there may be certain circumstances where pregnancy may be undesirable for a multitude of reasons - possible genetic defects, threat to health of the mother to name but two.

It's an emotive issue and I guess I could say I was pro-choice, but being neither female nor a parent as a result cannot speak from any perspective of experience.  Because it's such a thorny issue I don't feel wearing a T shirt with "I had an abortion" emblazoned across it is a particularly sensitive thing to do.  

But then I don't necessarily like the idea of T shirts with "Cocaine" or "Crack Whore" printed on them either.
