Well thanks for the support.  Visiting nurse came by today, lung is at near normal.  About 4 to 6 more weeks for the hole to heal.
On the bright side this is my third strange injury , hopefully my last, I am getting a little tired of " I have never seen anything like this" and of course  " how the hell did you manage do this" .

 Thanks for advice, I think the fork geometry has something to do with the bars spinning during a wash out.
Another possibility is getting a little old.

I wish I had  3d technology and a printer, I am almost there, I have a 1964 Viewmaster.

 Great crate option  https://www.homedepot.com/p/Clever-Crates-25-l-Collapsible-Milk-Crate-in-Grey-and-Black-8534175-AAU/318505231?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&&mtc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_016_GARAGE_ORG-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-SMART_Organization_Storage_Totes&cm_mmc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_016_GARAGE_ORG-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-SMART_Organization_Storage_Totes-71700000069657498-58700006150034497-92700072717558306&gclid=CjwKCAjwyaWZBhBGEiwACslQo4PiRKluHIabi-2cxJYvdaCOw7xtfU8Nl_QBQiymgMXaJ10SZrJInhoCSmEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

 I went with a milk crate for awhile  got it from a local store , considered throw away now. No company' wants them back.

Being short it was a problem hanging my leg over the saddle.  I found this, best 12 bucks spent. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Clever-Crates-25-l-Collapsible-Milk-Crate-in-Grey-and-Black-8534175-AAU/318505231?source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&&mtc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_016_GARAGE_ORG-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-SMART_Organization_Storage_Totes&cm_mmc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D59S-023_016_GARAGE_ORG-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NEW-SMART_Organization_Storage_Totes-71700000069657498-58700006150034497-92700072717558306&gclid=CjwKCAjwyaWZBhBGEiwACslQo4PiRKluHIabi-2cxJYvdaCOw7xtfU8Nl_QBQiymgMXaJ10SZrJInhoCSmEQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds

 I realized today after my incident how lucky I was. 1 block ride no helmet, what could happen?
I made it about 20 feet crash was very violent at walking speed.  My head was bleeding a little so neck collar had to come on.
Many years ago I thought motorcycle safety classes, most deaths happen at low speeds.
So today back to the Trauma clinic for a wound check.  I could not stand the pain to repack yesterday.,a old Polish man holding a mirror, flashlight, wound  cleaner and a 70 lb Huskie made me skip it.
I ramble sorry, today's visit a partially collapsed lung, noticed in my emergency room  10 days ago.

Be safe.

Thanks, didn't realize the stab, packing in about 10 inches of Mesalt daily using a mirror is not fun, only a few more weeks.

 I have a Mini 4, unfortunately not enough thread on the axle to fit a normal hitch mount. The best alternatives I have seen come from a company Mri-Denver, they have frame and kickstand alternative mounts. Unfortunately always seem out of stock.
This video has a link for a axle extender  ,  https://youtu.be/ghk6Ikgp69E.

 I am wondering if there is anything that would work to limit my Mini 4 handlebar from doing a complete 360.
I have had front end washout on my mountain bikes many times, usually ended up with catching it.
   Last week I had my worse wreck ever. The city repaired a broken water main and never cleaned the loose sand up, I cleaned my driveway and in front of my house. , while pulling out of my drive I applied the brakes to slow for a car, I was just at a roll.
I hit my brakes, front tire broke loose, got my leg down but maybe because of the slope and bike weight I couldn't stop the bars from a total spin, I guess once the cables wrapped it stopped.
Down I went, foot is now stuck in rear spokes twisted in a way I can't get out from under it..
Luckily a neighbor saw me a few minutes later and came to help. I asked him to rotate the back wheel to loosen my foot, he said no I have to call EMS , I asked why ? Reply was you are bleeding  bad.
Somehow during the fall the entire left brake lever managed to puncture my groin area, close call with a certain body part I would like to keep.
Paramedics arrive lever was in a high risk area , discussion was possibly transporting me and the bike together.  Luckily the bleeding was worsening so they had to cut my belt , shorts, underwear off, I did explain I just took a shower so that may explain the shrinkage factor of a certain part.
So other having to be naked in front of the neighborhood, the lever slipped out.
No stitches could be done, wound has to stay open and packed daily for awhile.  Only a little over a day in the hospital, managed to go from walker to cane in about a week.
Sorry for the long story . I was just thinking if I had a way that I could stop the bars from doing a total spin I probably could have caught the fall. Maybe a stabilizer, stop or damper.  Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks

Metric, I bought a set of Allen head sockets and a torque wrench from Harbor Freight also a folding set of Allen tools.. The Allen head bolts strip easily, very cheap.  I buy new ones if I have to touch one.

Just odometer,  code 21 pops up occasionally.

 I always complain,  I realized  they are in Seattle,  my 7 am call went to people that are sleeping

So going on 6 hours for a reply. I thought  a cheap bike would be OK. Rad can't respond.

 So I take my Mini 4 out today, the display lost my odometer miles, and when I turn the bike off the display is still on with no information showing.
I will call Rad tomorrow. Hoping for some knowledge here, last time I called them video almost killed me, ride at 20,lean over the handlebar and record the noise.

Your body forms a tripod on the bike, but the bike still only has two points of contact with the ground. I've never had a low speed stability problem with mine, but maybe it's the combination of the geometry and the individual?

Well as they say you hit the nail on the head ! I took my pedal bike out turn on a dime., I realized not my Mini but me.
After 45 years of driving I made a decision to take myself off the road,  I have a undiagnosed condition that causes extreme dizziness.
So I bought my bike,  I have to use a cane to walk,  not for a physical need but for safety.
Motion  helps,  thanks to all the posts I now can turn on a dime, safely.

A stop sign every 30 seconds? That's a lot and makes things much tougher! It's to bad you don't live in one of the states that allows for Idaho stops, which allows bikes to treat stop signs like yield signs.

well I think ai was wrong, in one mile to get some food  17.
