Yesterday’s ride home from work resulted in me removing several lumps of my calf, and having to cut what was hanging off with nail clippers. I tried a 3ft drop to a short, steep transition. Dunno what went wrong, but the bike popped out from under me, and the DXs bit me.

goopy

I’m currently sporting a cluster of gammy holes in my leg that have seeped yellow goo through their third melolin dressing already. I believe that yellow and sticky is okay, but if it gets green and smelly, I ought to do something about them. Anyway, given my old Seventies shinpads are 8 years old and have never been washed, I’ve invested in a new pair in an effort to avoid a repeat injury.
