Am new to London, cycling to get around, the left side of the road, this forum. I searched and didn't come up with anything, so hope I'm not repeating any covered stuff.
I just took my first fall. It was completely my fault, had a bit of a wobble and flipped off. Actually the cars around were super nice about making sure I was okay. Luckily, only a scratched up elbow and knee. Remarkably, laptop is completely fine. I checked everything on the bike that I could think of and basically all I noticed is that the saddle has a scrape and the stem seems to have rotated a few degrees. Is there any good list of other things that I could check out -- I mean, some kind of checklist maybe that I could run down, perhaps to make a preliminary determination as to whether to take it in to the shop?
