Holy Kamolly

So, we are closing up the shop, emptying the garbage and the like. Danny comes running in and says "Some woman just got hit in the alley, I think I saw sparks!"

She was going down the sidewalk on her bike and POW! she went down. "Ow." is what Danny heard. 

We all sprung into action to see what was going on. She was bleeding from her forehead pretty well and seemed okay, considering she didn't have on a helmet. She said that she would rather just get a ride to the hospital... and she kept on bleeding. Her bump got about the thickness of a finger. And so, 9-1-1.

The whole parade got here really quick. Less than 2 minutes, I'd say. 

They packaged her up and moved her out. We took in the bike and left a card.

A man looked at Greg and said, "I've heard of ambulance chasers, but you guys are hard core". We smiled and left.

The lesson here: Please stay off of the sidewalk. Please wear a helmet. Seriously. Please.

it's true. Two of my friends have been hit riding on the sidewalk- one of them twice! And the cops usually say it's your fault leaving you with no one but yourself to pay for your bike
