Glad your OK, we would never want to lose an STR rider!!

Perfect timing for posting the emergency care LBmtb

When are the plans to get back on the bike??

Epic_Mtn_Biker · 01-01-2006, 04:47 PM

Hey Jared,

Glad to know you're OK, aside from everything else.

I think your liquid would be better for all your riding. *as far as wearing pads go, i've never used them, since i'm a bit more conservative on the descents and just use my brakes more. do what you have to do, but speed is can be tricky. one more thing, check your suspension setup, make sure it's compatible with your riding style, i know that has an effect on how your bike will handle the rough stuff at different speeds.

Keep the rubber side down!

Jared,

Glad you feel better.

I was telling my wife about your crash and the fact that the helmet saved you life. Her first question was: "do you know what brand of helmet it was?"

I am on my third helmet in 3 years. I cracked 2 Specialized helmets and never had more than a small bruise on my forehead.

I now have a Giro Xen. It has a good coverage and is very comfortable. I decided to get Xen when I saw my friend drop about 6 feet and land on his head like a missile, and then get up smiling.

It is something I never have any problem justifying the cost with my wife.

I have (had) a specialized helmet. Bless those techs who bash helmet all day. So Giro? I'm in the Market now so I'll definatley have to check them out.

It's also a good idea to learn to roll with a fall when you endo or get thrown off of a bike. It could potentially save you from injury.

Whew , glad you are OK-ish.

Not just a new years eve post, but one from a year and a half ago...???

Jason, is there something you want to share with us?

RacinJason · 07-16-2007, 10:18 AM

I noticed a Chumba racing post and it wasn't from me.
It was confusing.

Sorry to hear about the crash but glad to hear your out of the hospiatal and doing well.

For those of you who've never seen a severe hip contusion ....

PS - This is a blast from the PAST - Happened over a year and a half ago, I have healed just fine.
Use this a evidence that because crap happens it doesn't mean you should quit
