I "squeezed the lemon" a little too hard once.
I was riding my bike through an intersection and based on my experience at this one, I knew the light was gonna turn red the moment I hit the beginning of the intersection. For some reason I thought I could milk that moment between when the perpendicular traffic saw the green light and when they moved out into the intersection.
I kept pedalling hard and I made it but I'm pretty sure I felt a bumper graze my back tire. I maintained control of the bike, but I hit the curb hard and almost fell off. I was much younger then...
