I was on my regular Tuesday night right just like normal. We had just gone through our warmup when we hit Duthie Hill (Not steep or anything just long enough to hit about 38-40 MPH.) A gap opened up pretty quick when out of nowhere I hit a pothole. I still don't know how it happened but I lost complete grip on the bars. All of the sudden I was much too close to my bars and swerving and I could see as my water bottles ejected from the cages in slowmo. Some how I by some form of magic I didn't hit pavement and stayed on the bike. Either by dumb luck or by impecable handling skills I didn't die. I have no idea how I pulled it off or how I hit the pothole. Ive been down the same hill dozens of times with no problems. I'm still alive and now have no water bottles.
