Fell off my shiny new ebike.. but why?

I wonder if your front wheel caught the side of a rut, doesn't have to be big' Very quick and easy to do and no coming back from it.
I don't think you're crackers, your post five echoes my thoughts exactly.

The fisherman must have thought that you were SW and laid a trap.

My small slip coincided with my reading of a study .

that'll be it, don't read and ride your bike at the same time - sorry couldn't resist

Where balance is concerned I'm a real oddity. I never fall off two wheelers and age has made no difference to that, my balance being as perfect as anyone could wish for. I'm even one of the gits who routinely showed off on motorbikes by not putting a foot down while waiting long periods at traffic lights, even in my late sixties!

But I'm hopeless on my feet! I cannot stand reliably on one leg for more than a second, I cannot stay upright on a skateboard, ice skates or roller skates. And I've sometimes even fallen while walking.

So I just think I belong on wheels, either one in front and one behind or four well spaced ones. I've got five wheels on the chair I'm sitting on at the moment!

Is that like in Dr Who.... but two of them?

Elderly and falling over for no reason? I'd be heading for the doctors for a Parkinson's and Alzheimer's check over. My parents are not even properly old and their planning ahead and driving skill has markedly deteriorated in the last two or 3 years.

Phill , start taking water with whatever you have been drinking

On a serious note I hope you get to the bottom of the cause for your tumble
