This spring started absolutely great. The warmest March in Austria since 17 hundred something. I was on the bike early and thanks to my new ergometer I had a lot of power already on my first rides. The weather forecast for the last weekend in March was outstanding. I planned to ride my race bike at least on two days.<\/p>\n

The first was on Friday. A beautiful, warm and sunny day. Everything was just perfect. Just before I reached home a boy ran into my bike. He ran out of a small side road to cross the street without looking for the traffic and ran directly into me. I crashed hard.<\/p>\n

I can’t remember exactly how. The thing I can remember is that I was lying on the road on my back in pain. It was hard for me to breathe because of the strong impact My googles were lying on the street. All 4 glasses out of the frame. A man stopped the traffic asked if I need an ambulance. He put the optical glasses back in place, gave me my googles and a coat while his wife called the ambulance.<\/p>\n

After a painful ride to the hospital and another one back home it’s clear. This spring is not great. At least not for me. A broken collarbone, a thorax bruise and several abrasions and a big haematoma I discovered 2 days later. I have to wear a very uncomfortable bandage for about 5 weeks and I need to rest. I can’t do anything at all. I can’t go to work. I can’t ride a bike. I even can not take pictures because I can’t use my right arm and shoulder.<\/p>\n

This spring I had so many plans. I wanted to ride my bike. I wanted to visit the Neusiedlersee National Park to shoot some pictures of it’s bird and it’s beautiful landscape. I simply planed to enjoy life. And the weather seemed to be perfect for that.<\/p>\n

Now I’m siting inside the house, eating pain killers as if they are candies\u00a0and feel sorry for myself. This spring sucks!<\/p>\n

BTW: The pictures for this blog post I took at the beginning of March at the Neusiedlersee NP. It was exactly one year ago when I visited this place the last time. On a sunny and cold day just before I left home for my first business trip to South East Asia.<\/p>\n
