Uh-oh!
I spent the afternoon in the hospital with my athlete strapped to a board and her neck in a cspine immobilizer. After 7 hours, she left the hospital with a chest wall contusion...her friend left with a broken (very broken!) clavicle. Not a good way to end any ride but thankfully nothing too serious. (I am not sure what happened exactly as I was in the front of our little group. A car cut me off, not terribly so but enough to have to sit up and slow down...than I heard screaming and carnage...I did get to ride home in the front seat of the cop car so that all of our bikes could make it back to the condo while they were transported to the hospital though.)
