It must have been when I was in 4th or 5th grade I bought a U.S.S. Enterprise model, and it was a fairly large box.
I picked it up at the local hobby store and took it home on my 10-speed. I didn't have the brake levers I could apply when my hands were on the top of the bars and while riding home with one hand on the bars and the other holding the box to my side I had to go to the dirt sidewalk in an intersection as lots of cars were coming through. There was a fence with posts and a couple of cross bars to my left with rose bushes sticking through and not being able to stop, I ran into the mailbox post near the driveway to the house. I fell into the street to my right with my left arm going under a 60's VW bus and it ran over my arm, breaking one of the bones and roughing up the skin, stripping it completely off at my wrist, exposing white bone. I didn't feel hurt, but was a little in shock. The lady driving the bus put me in the back with my bike, and there was a baby standing in a crib back there, too. She gave me a ride home, and of course my mom kind of freaked out. I had a paper bag with some glue in it tucked under my shirt and she thought it was a bandage of some sort. The model was undamaged and I assembled it with my half cast on. Hard cast on the underside and a bandage wrapped around it to service the abrasions. The doctor said it was mostly like a 2nd degree burn. I still have the scars where my bone came through. Good times!
