That corner always gets a blind double ding from me. I had a guy behind me ask why I rang as he passed me after- that's why.

On a side note- I bought my replacement helmet and tail light today. The guys at the Beltline MEC are so much better than the ones in the south. I had two guys looking after me (bike tech started while waiting for a sales rep to get free.) Whereas at the south store I asked two different people for help, and got pretty much a "helmets are right there."

One of my good friends has offered to do my route with me the first day back. Hoping for next week- right now I'm feeling the whiplash a little more than the concussion. Stitches are out and my face is now healed to the point where people are asking me "did you get into a fight?" as opposed to "Holy crap! What the hell happened to you."
