Is that the bike on which you crashed? You mentioned that it suffered no damage.

Yes this is the bike and it is a Singlespeed Beltdrive all carbon fiber bike including wheels and crank arms. Only damage I had from the crash was blood all over the left handlebar, gouged a tiny hold in the left brake hood cover and all the rest of the damage ended up with the rider himself..:) I managed to get most of blood off of tape and already ordered a new set of brake hood covers for the bike...

Well done BR! How's the head?
The new helmet looks good.

Trim that 'tache, and you might get an extra 5mph!

X marks the spot

Yesterday was the first time I ventured back onto the bike trail to where I crashed 3 weeks ago and still this reminder of what has happen is still there for me to see...
