With the accident I had, you would think I would have a scar but I don't. I was riding my bike along a paved bycicle track doing about 35-40 (21 speed mountain bike) when (from what I am told) my back tire hit a patch of gravel and I went down, slammed my head onto the pavement and slid for about 15-20 feet tearing up my arm, leg and face. I got a concussion and the scrapes and bruises but all healed fine. I have a little bit of short term memory loss every now and then but it usually only affects trivial things. Such as what I had for dinner last night or where I left my car keys.
