The weird part is that I screw around on the bike quite a bit. But I never break anything or get hurt when screwing around. It's always when I'm behaving that something bad happens.
Sorry to read of your mishap Scottie.
I'm guessing that when you're messing about, you're concentrating on your riding, which might explain why you're less likely to have a mishap. My personal experience is that boredom and distraction are my enemies on the bike. (Long straight roads and sound wired into the helmet. . .)
Glad you're OK and the bike is still ride-able.
Cheers,
Dan K.
