Narrative

The employee was leading a group of clients on a bike ride when she came to a temporary construction walkway. The employee swerved to avoid a shoe in the middle of the walkway at which point a 2 x 4 wooden plank that was sticking out into the walkway got caught in her front wheel. The employee fell off her bike onto her left side and was hospitalized with broken ribs and a fractured back.
