Had my first fall today. And second. And third. They weren’t that bad, actually! The third one was on my tailbone though so I called it a day after finishing that lap at the rink.

Didn’t have gear on, but I will definitely be using wrist guards and knee pads when they come in the mail.

Any tips on controlling falls so I don’t land so squarely on my tailbone again?

Also my uncle, who’s a cyclist, warned me not to take a hot shower because it’ll make the bruised parts of my body swell up and hurt worse. The more you know!
