Why's he taking his hands off the bars? Isn't that dangerous?

I live in Mission Viejo. Mostly ride local. Doing a lot of GeoLadders routes and having fun. I recognize a couple names from GL over here. This looks like a great site.

Thanks

Welcome to the site.

I would welcome face planting into the pine needles over most of the places I endo....always on a steep downhill rockgarden.

yes, the tree stump just jumped up out of the ground. This has happened to me on a number of occasions and is not limited to tree stumps, but also rocks, smaller trees/bushes, other riders, signs and numerous other obstacles. There must be a name for it.
