Three things all cyclists can learn from this unfortunate tumble.
1. Best if you hold on correctly (thumbs wrapped around) when you are on the tops.
2. On a hot humid day gloves can help you from slipping of the tops due to sweaty hands.
3. This was on a group ride and we were in a double pace line and the two up front were talking and not paying attention SO no one called out the pothole that he hit.
I was on the bike with the cyclic camera and hit the same pothole but was holding on correctly with gloves on and didn’t crash.
