I crashed on my bicycle today in Spain. It was pretty remarkable.
Were you on the plain in the rain?
Actually, it had rained earlier--that's what contributed to it--but we're on Mallorca, not on the plain.
We entered a turn at about 22 mph. First, I saw my friend's wheels drop out from under him, then he hit the ground hard and started sliding. I thought, "I hope he doesn't break his clavicle." Then my wheels slipped out from under me and I was on the ground sliding, thinking, "I hope I don't break my clavicle."
So you hydroplaned in the rain, mainly away from the plains of Spain?
