I had a little crash today. I was playing in a gravel pit and laid my bike over. Bike is fine, I was going slow, but it fell onto my foot and I broke 3 bones. I'm gonna be laid up for 6 weeks now. I feel stupid, cause I'm a new rider and I feel like I shouldn't have been in the gravel pit. I wasn't doing anything crazy, no jumps or burnouts or anything like that. Just going in circles at sub 20kph speeds. When it happened, I was doing 10kph maybe 15. So no road rash, no damage to the bike, but damn. I'm angry. I don't know. I was wearing full gear with good Alpinestar boots. I dunno man, just feels bad. Guess I'm just looking for some reassurance from you guys.
Edit: Thanks everyone. I feel a lot better about it. I'm not scared away, can't wait to get back into the saddle. Lessons were learned and I'll improve from here. My foot hurts like a mother fucker, can barely sleep. I'll let that be my reminder as I think back on the incident. Again, thank you all for your advice and stories.
