Avoiding Injuries

My freshmen year I had these two great friends who liked to to a lot of stupids things. (They still do...) So one time we decided that since no one wanted to drive to Norris Lake, we were gonna ride bikes all the way there. Unfortunately we only had two bikes and three people. Luckily, one of the bikes had pegs that I got to ride on because I was the smallest. One the way there something rubbed on my leg until it started to burn. I had been on a bike with pegs and a wheel that had been bent sideways! My leg was burnt in two places. Now, two years later the scars are pretty easy to notice when I wear shorts. If I would have sucked it up and waited a few more hours we would have gotten a ride and been able to go swimming without a scratch (or a burn)....
