Wrong choise

In fact, I use both brakes to brake efficiently and quickly. I heavily pushed the front brake and fell. Now everything is fine, my hands got bruises, as I was wearing gloves. Major damage to my legs. Thanks for the concern!

Falling is the basis of humor. If it's funny, I'm glad that I got it)

Riding a bike is fun, but you need to be careful. I'm fine, thank you!

Prywinko

Ouch! It's Horrible! Thanks! ^^

Prywinko

Yes, but now I'm fine ^^

Prywinko

Yes, that's why I do not leave the house XD

Prywinko

Thank you!

Prywinko

You are so kind! ^^ Thank you! I did not hit my head (Hooray!) and my helmet is not broken. I think now I'll ride in the knee pads!

I always use two brakes to make braking effective. Need practice :)

Prywinko

Thank you!

Prywinko

Yes, I'm almost healthy and ready to ride again!

Cederien is right, you made the correct choice. The front brake has about 70% more stopping power. Slowing down gradually would have prevented this, but that isn’t always possible. Hopefully you are alright, and didn’t damage your hands too much.

Is it wrong to laugh at your pain? Great image - and we all have accidents. Best thing is to never attempt anything at all, ever lol

Oh my, Olga I hope you’re ok T_T. this is why i never learned how to ride a bike, i always was scared of them.

... that was dangerous

Did the exact same thing as a teen and broke my arm, hope your recovery goes smooth!

I believe the correct answer is in fact 'stay inside and watch anime/play video games'. Unfortunately, I wore out that lever on my bike a long time ago...

BOTH always seems the best choice to us, when in doubt. Glad you're recovering. Get well soon!

I hope you're feeling better! Have you replaced your helmet? Most bike helmets are designed to only take one hard hit; the foam inside gets broken and won't protect you again. If you need a new helmet and wrist/knee pads, I'd be happy to help pay for them. ^_^

Actually front brake was the right choice (better yet use both), the rear alone does very little if you need to break hard (the rear wheel starts to skid very easily as the pressure goes to the front wheel). You need to move your body backward if breaking hard though. That way you put more pressure to the rear wheel which allows you to break harder without dismounting via the handlebar. ;) I know easily said. It does take some practice I admit, but it's worth practising as you found out the hard way.

Cederien

Oh my gosh this is hilarious but ouch!!

Oh no I think most people have done that once in their life. I hope you get better soon and that your injuries are nothing permanent ❤️
