I first would like to apologize for getting rather mad, calling you a stupid ***** and saying it was a “hit and run” to the police, also in hindsight spitting at you was not cool. I feel bad about it now, and it will haunt me for a while, or at least until something else comes up. You shattered my wings, granted they were glass wings and when you’re throwing yourself through the narrowest possible canyons getting hit is almost certain still, it ***** the wind out of you, even if just for a second. I love jumping through canyons daring gravity to do its worst, but I was playing by the rules, respecting nature or at least I planned on not breezing by the sides as much. I guess its habit now, to risk getting shattered for the freedom of movement in a restricted space. I swear when I hit the ground I was ready to walk away I was intact. Ready to continue on my way and saying “yeah I’m fine”, learn nothing and find smaller canyons. but when I saw the bird you hit, my brain sprinted for the worst. That knocked the wind out of me. Instantly I thought it was completely ****** and while I still do have my wings, you shattered part of my glass illusion. Thank god for repair shops. You see you own the skies your kind controls the canyons walls, make them zig then zag that way. Sure their are bigger gods, but they only show up from time to time. I’m part of the skies but my only possible responsibility is to not hit the birds. The rules say I need to act like you, but the rulers let us fly our own ways. The bigger gods understand or just don’t care. So next time just know that the rules are not the ones in physics textbooks, those are often confusing and require years worth of reading, of understanding billions of acceptions of knowing what the hell centripetal force is, and being able to solve painful multi variable calculus problems the way physics actually works is what happens when the winds take glass and you, being a god got careless and broke the laws of physics.

To the women whose car I got hit by

So I'm a very passionate cyclist and this was my first crash of any note whatsoever with a car, any feedback is more than welcome
