Hello All. Those of you who are regular followers of my blog may have noticed an interruption in my regular every-other-day posting schedule. The day of my last post (August 25th) my wife and I rode our eBikes up the Dosewallips River Road past the washouts and up to the old Dosewallips Campground. The image above shows the Dosewallips falls that sits about a half mile from the campground and is one of the attractions of that area.
We had a nice ride until the return trip when just after departing the campground, my bike hit a rock and the front tire kicked sideways and I left the road. Fortunately, I was only traveling 3 mph (5 kmph). However, the ground was not level and I dropped down a few feet (with the bike following on top of me) before stopped by a small alder tree and cracking 3 ribs on my lower right back. It was painful and I spent a few days in hospital.
I’m on the road to recovery, but am taking this time to reflect. My blog schedule is subject to review. I will let you all know what the result is. In the meantime, I will spend some time healing up.
Thank you all for you support. It means a lot to me.
PS Does anyone want to buy an eBike?
So sorry, Allan. Beautiful photo.
Thanks, Gene.
Wow! I wondered where you were. So sorry to hear about your fall, Allan, but glad it wasn’t worse. I hope you heal well and quickly. And nope, no interest in an eBike. 😊
Thanks for the wishes, Lynette.
I hope for a speedy recovery, too.
Whoa, anyone would think you’re related to me! I pass on any bike unless it has 3 wheels. I’m so sorry you were injured and grateful you’re on the mend. Please don’t totally abandon your Blog, so many of us look forward to it. Love you and keep the rubber side down!
Thanks, Jan. I’ll take your advice.
And I will continue posting on some schedule, but every other day for 10 years has been tiring.
Hello Allan, awesome photo and nice waterfall. I don’t need an E-Bike right in my life.
Well, the community here is very bike friendly.
That helps.
Very pretty! You do take beautiful pictures. I don’t always comment, but I always look at them.
Thank you Diana. I really do appreciate it.
Yikes, recover soon, Allan.
Bless you, that doesn’t sound like fun. Hope you’re well again soon xx
Ouch! Wishing you a speedy recovery.
