I need the STR Family's help on a name change. After my experince of flying the friendly skies over Peters Canyon (See the thread below, I'm the New Guy in the Blue and Red Shirt) it was suggested by JSims that I change my name.
I am much obliged to do so. Story: Rode with Peters Canyon Taco Tuesday Ride and had a blast. Made the trip out from the 909 because I had the day off. So we were in a spaced line and were heading down the last bit of Single track before heading up the fire road back out of the park. Paying close attention to the rough part directly in front of me I failed to realize that the road ahead had a Fence (two metal posts with tensioned line between it). So I cleared the rought bit and release my brakes thanking I can coast out onto the road. WRONG! The instant this became clear to me my hands locked my brakes and the bike stopped. Funny thing about momentum is that there has to be a force to stop it. The force turned out to be this pole/line/ground combination. I landed on my back (camelback beween me and the ground). Tweeked my stem, bruised myself, ripped the shoulder strap on my camelback and possibly ruined my helmet (expensive freakin fall). End Story: So I want you to be voice and here are the options. I plan on sending Godfather a PM to change this when the Famliy has spoken. Options: FenceLine FencePost Cinco (+1) de Mayo aka May 6th Taco Tuesday

Clotheslined is always an option too. I'm just glad you're able to laugh about it today... I've had my share of OTB experiences and they aren't fun!!!

I think you should hold on to your name for a bit longer. Names have to be earned-not by just one fall when you are a newbie. Time will give you your screen name.

The week prior we when I rode this ride we were actually having a discusion on how they should put up a sign or reflector to prevent this kind of incident from happening. Kinda funny that it happend the week after. But glad you're ok and like Andy said it takes more than 1 ride to determine your name. My name on the other hand needs to be changed.

Peters is a place for people to get a feel of riding...and it's an organized and slower ride ....so it's great newer riders can come out and try it out....ease up on Peters Hugh...not everyone Goats like you.
