There is something delightful about riding a bicycle. Once mastered, the simple action of pedaling to move forward and turning the handlebars to steer makes bike riding an effortless activity.

I wrecked my bike almost a decade ago. Not the first time, but the most violent wreck I've ever experienced.

Got thrown into traffic, broke some ribs, messed up my shoulder, and cracked my helmet almost in two.

After healing tried riding my bike again. Absolutely did not expect PTSD, but could not otherwise explain how wholly unconfident I felt while trying to ride a bike, even til this day.
