Just make sure to
wear your gear, even if you're only going out for 5 mins...gloves and a jacket at least...
This was travelling about 30-40km/h and to avoid a potential flipping over a hood of a car doing a u turn where they shouldn't have, I dropped and slid. Seemed like the best of the two options at the time, well the 2 seconds I had to decide anyway. Bike wasn't damaged too much, ankle was swollen, rash took a while to heal, that was the worst part.
Live and learn...and ride another day!
