Thanks for the advice. My muscles ache a lot more today, but I think that's the worst. I'll call my physician today for a referral to a good orthopedic doc.

My bike always whispers go faster every day. I have been riding faster every day, and enjoying it 100%. The problem is yesterday I was not riding fast enough. I took a different route, because I felt 'off' and that's what got me in trouble.

2 strange premonitions:
1) Just 20 minutes before the wreck I was telling myself how much I loved my jersey. It fits, or shall I say did fit me so well.
2) The second reason I took a different route was to save time so I could have the wheels trued at the local bike shop.

Well, I no longer have that jersey and the front wheel is toast. The wheel had a Mavic CXP-33 rim with 32 spokes built to withstand a beating. After 2800 miles it was still true. Rim was still round, but it's crazy warped now.

C'est la vie.
