It's okay, it was scary, one minute I was biking and the next I was on the ground with some people talking to me.
I got back on my bike this summer, albeit I picked up an ebike. That little motor gives me just the right amount of confidence and a bit of an escape valve if I start to wear down.
Were there any symptoms before that happened? Sounds like a scary thing to happen if you're biking on a roadway :o
Not as much symptomatic warning as you might think. I was getting worn down, stopped to catch my breath and that was it. Luckily I was on a firm trail and not the road.
That's wild! I hope it never happens again!
Me too, I'm a lot more cautious about humidity and temperature, along with my own capabilities, these days.
