[Somehow, this is more humiliating than falling off a horse (which he has also done), if only because of the lack of external factors. Sure, it was the cat's fault, technically, but his lack of experience and general unsteadiness on his feet did them no favors. He waits, patiently, as Kyle un-sticks him from the pedals, and then immediately gets to work hauling himself to his feet.]
At least the ride is smooth. [Ish. Viktor's next concern is the bicycle, and he steps gingerly toward it, still smarting, in order to pull it back upright.] No damage.
[Nothing he can't fix back at the tavern, anyway.]
