Thumbs up, big smile.
I'm OK.

Looked like the 2nd bike was gonna go completely under for a second.

Was great fodder to remind my son to NEVER (willingly) drive through puddles...you never know how deep they may be.

And I was thinking that the rain ~ though causing the first one ~ surely made that slide better than it would have been on dry pavement.

But I bet he still reached for some ibuprofen this morning...

Hey, that second guy made forward progress without his bike.

I'm not sure I'd call sliding down the road on your butt 'progress'.
