    Hello,

    During a couple of these rides, I’ve been contemplating what would happen should I fall off while travelling so quickly. I know if I hit a pedestrian I could severely injure them, but what what happen to me if, for example, I had a blow-out and came off at 20 MPH? 30? 40? Sort of a morbid curiosity, I know. But while «herd knowledge» of crashing in a car or motorbike is fairly robust, I haven’t found anyone who really knows much about crashing bicycles. So I turn to the hivemind. Please, feel free to use this space to speculate wildly about the possible effects of high speed (for a bike) bicycle crashes.

    Any help will be apprecited.

    I didn’t find the right solution from the Internet.
