Yup so i've been riding for about two weeks now and all is going well.

Ive double the distance in which i ride i've increased in speed, i've lost weight and i feel great.

I also learned two valuable lessons yesterday,

1. Buy a helmet!

2. Never vlog while riding as this will happen

    These videos are a waste of the internet. There is only so much to go around you know. Very selfish.

    You're an idiot for riding without a helmet...

    ...and glad you're ok.

    You say it would have been very embarrasing if anyone had been around - then you've posted it on YouTube and a bike forum?

    Am I missing something?

    Also - a 5mph chute isn't epic. It's merely unfortunate.

    I was thinking much the same thing on both counts.

    I'd suggest joining a cycling club. Improve your riding skills and find some real cycling buddies. Then perhaps you'd feel less compelled to clutter up the internet with dull videos.

    You've caught me on a bad day...
