Crash.
I wasn’t really going to bring this up, but meh… I’m sharing everything else… So I crashed my moped the other day… Nothing big but I did lose control and fall off my bike. Sound familiar? Yes, the same thing happen while riding a jet ski in Cabo last summer… But the reason I’m bringing this up is because this crash really messed with my head.
The prior few days I would jump on and drive 60-80km everywhere and not think twice about it… Instantly after this fall I became overly cautionary with every turn and lost complete confidence in driving. But the thing was we live 7km from downtown and that meant I still would have to use the moped to get around… Not giving up…It took almost three full days to even feel comfortable again on the bike and it wasn’t until late this evening on a ride around the island that I gained the confidence back.
Such an interesting experience in a short period of time… But I guess I just re-learned to trust myself…
OK enough about that sappy stuff…We also rented jet skis today… definitely on the list of things to buy when I move back to PDX.

Was it so important that you needed to say it twice?
