For the love of God man ... don't do it ... oh - sorry, I thought we were still trying to talk mj out of buying that bike or did I miss something. While we're on the topic of old deformed child jokes, what do you call a kid with no arms or legs?

It took my bike forever to get here, but I got it in yesterday and took it out for its first ride in the evening. Overall, a pretty good experience even though I had not properly adjusted the seat height, handlebar angle or made sure the front tire was properly inflated and I managed to take a small tumble on my way back home. I'll ride it down to the bike shop this weekend to get a bike pump.
Oh yeah, did I mention a tumble? A thunderstorm had just finished but I was too excited to wait for a blistering sun, so I took it out for its first spin for maybe 5 miles. On my return, not two blocks away from my home I was riding on the sidewalk since I live downtown. There was a guy and two cunts walking in the opposite direction. The guy had the sense of reason to stay right, but the two ignorant cunts felt it was their due privilege to expand the entire width of the sidewalk, a wide one mind you, and eventually I was forced into a patch of grass. I learned something about road bikes, they don't ride really well in wet grass. So the tire decided to do a little slip and slide until the wheel got caught up between the grass and sidewalk eventually forcing me into a maneuver I hadn't used since little league.

Basically I scraped up my shin, and it was swollen for the night, for which I iced it. Then I kept it wrapped up in gauze and antibacterial ointment. Looks fine now.

The bike is OK, suffered pretty much no damage. Now I just have to break those mountain bike instincts.

I would feel compelled to laugh except I feel sorry for your bike.
Could you please provide a picture of it just so I can be assured that it's OK.
PS fuck your leg.
Respect my lack of authority.
