[Rec_bike] Rider down!

[Arne Freyberger]

Yes, I crashed on Monday night.  Yes I considered shutting down the FCCC 
spreadsheet/competition.  But would I have been out there anyway on my 
bike, even without the FCCC? Yes!  Haven't I ridden by this pot hole at 
least 1000 times before without issue? Yes.  Why did I hit the pothole 
on Monday? statistics, it was a 6 sigma event.

Some lessons learned:

 1. don't post selfies when injured and drugged up.
 2. evaluate the conditions and adjust accordingly.
 3. Pay attention to the road

During these shorten daylight days I strongly recommend a 7-4 or 7-3:30 
schedule so the evening ride starts out in day-light.

FCCC will continue, but I might have ridden my last mile this year.  Not 
sure when my shoulder will be load bearing again.

But the beer is bubble!
