Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Pacific

So we're standing in the Pacific with our back wheel taking on saltwater.  Nice pic and all, but just a few minutes before the smiles and pose, all fiasco broke loose.  Terence had the worst accident of his biking career just walking his bike through the sand to the water's edge about a quarter mile from the road.  He falls over his sliding bike into a curb and damages his hand and face. I and Rick also wrestled  our overloaded behemoths to the Android moment site only to fall and grind sand into the chains and wheels. Confidence shaken and chagrined by such unprofessional behavior, what could we do but smile like seasoned cyclists?
