Karma's a bitch. I watch the vid in the OP yesterday and had a good chuckle. This morning, heading round the Museumplein in Amsterdam on my dutch bike going fast there was a patch of invisible ice and I stacked it nicely: kept my feet when the bike went down, then slow-motion skidding around on my feet, tripped over bike, 5 meter slide along the bike lane on my right knee. It would have been easier to take if other people had seen the funny side and laughed at me, but it was as if my fall was the most normal thing in the world. Bring on the spring.
