If you ever have a choice between going flying over your handlebars and landing on pavement and getting road rash and breaking your wrist badly enough to need surgery to insert some titanium, or not doing that, I recommend NOT.
Learn from my mistakes, is what I'm saying.
(I'm home now, recovering.)
@pjohanneson I have found that while airborne, your brain can slip into that fast-processing crisis mode that seems to give you ample time to figure out how to best land while minimizing the damage.
There is a corollary to this, though: since risk of such a circumstance is proportional to the amount of time you spend riding, if you spend a lot of time on a bike, consider shaving your legs, because road rash on hairy legs is extremely not fun.
I wish you a speedy and full recovery.
