I've biked into signposts before, looking behind me for whatever reason.
I once was biking down a residential sidewalk in junior high and there were two good looking girls walking towards me. I tried to move over to the lawn so that I could get out of their way, but that piece of lawn was trimmed in such a way that the sod stuck up a good couple inches from the sidewalk. I bailed huge, and hung my head in shame as I picked myself up. I never liked pretty girls laughing at me. You'd think I'd get used to it, considering how often it happens.
