Hope your recovery is swift.

Dave, don't be too sure about those bike paths. I stopped serious cycling after I was forced off a cycle path by a group of ladies who steadfastly refused to make room despite my bell ringing, hand waving and patient following; so I ventured off the concrete, got my front wheel caught in a ditch concealed by grass and went head-over heels into a creek bed - hip and shoulder both busted. As I lay sprawled across rocks in the creek bed, the ladies in question looked at me down there, spoke to one another and continued on their merry way.
I almost gave up ladies as well, but that moment passed quickly. Another young woman saw me and came to my aid and called an ambulance.
