Now it wouldn't have been so painful had I just fell on the carpet portion to my left. But no, i had to fall on the hardwood portion, and it was by like 5 cm

Passed Robbie McEwen riding a couple of times yesterday. First time i've ever seen a pro/former pro cyclist out riding. What about you guys? Especially Europeans, do you guys come accross known cyclists very often?

Nope. Thing is I wouldn't necessarily recognize them, with helmets, glasses, etc. It might as well be randoms wearing pro kits.
But even living in a region with a fair share of pros, I don't think I've ever caught or been caught riding by a pro, or crossed one on my way.
There's just Strava to let you know who rode where and when, and thus allows to know if X or Y rode there recently.
My father once was overtaken by Bescond (Cofidis) and another amateur.
Of course there are still some races in the neighbourhood (Boucles de l'Aulne, Tour du Finistère, etc.) to see pros "for real".

Wow.
From here on it's all downhill for you.
I once saw Sven Nys training in the Flemish Ardennes, also saw a Topsport Vlaanderen train there but didn't see who he was. Was definitely a pro, though, the way he climbed that hill
Also saw the Quickstep team on the morning of the Omloop once, doing a little warming up, I guess.

I alomost fell off my chair myself watching that.
And i never met a pro either, tough i guess not many live in Germany anyway.
Considering my uni flat is a few metres away from the Swiss border (where everyone wanting a German lifestyle, but Swiss taxes lives), I might have a decent chance to see Martin, Greipel, Nerz, Klöden or Ullrich sometime.
