Bruises and Bikes in Japan

One afternoon/evening in Japan,  I was riding a bike out of the parking area behind the apartment complex where I lived and something happened that I lost control!  I was wearing a helmet, because there had been several "almost accidents" while riding my bike!  Most times, sometimes the cars didn't see me when they are turnings corners, and I had been "almost hit" one more than one occasion.   This day, there were no cars to cause me to lose control, but for some reason I lost control.  I ended up flying over the handlebars and ended up flat on the ground. 

I ended up with a huge bruise on my right shoulder and another on my right thigh!  The bruise on my thigh looked like a shoe print, I must have done some amazing acrobatics while flying over the handlebars!  I was surprised that I didn't break something or have more bruising...

 

I should have taken a few pictures when my bruises started to turn all yellow and green, but I think these were taken the day after my acrobatics over the handlebar.
