Randomly, in the spirit of Halloween, I figured I’d share my mostly minor mishap today. It happened on my spare junker BMX bike today while doing front end spin around sort of balance tricks.

Apparently I need to get some end caps for my handlebars, the sharp uncapped handlebars are what cut me. ☹️🤦

Edit: Don’t mind the wristband, that’s a 1.5 pound sandbag weight to help exercise my left arm.

    Yeah, I hear you there. 👍

    But for real, more-so its a reminder that I need some protective end caps on the handlebars. This wasn’t a pavement injury, it was literally the unprotected end of the handlebars that stabbed into my palm.

    At least it was only a first layer skin injury, not down to the meat and not much blood, but of course its gonna need some healing time…
