Tuesday, April 29

Seems like I have been crashing a lot lately. I was riding Santiago Oaks and missed one of the turns on Zips/Chutes. The one where you should take the right line, and I came in way too fast and went straight, heading for a rut and then a slide of about 15 feet.

Anyways...When I got home I found out why people kept saying I got sprayed.

Tried to make it smaller, unsuccessfully.
EDIT: Success!

Wow-nice work. I've crashed in that same spot.

gregOREO · 04-29-2008, 09:31 PM

nice make up lol jk

RustyIron · 04-29-2008, 10:05 PM

DOOD! That's gonna hurt in the morning.

It's surprising that we riders are so damed good looking, considering all the scabs and scars that we accumulate.

Hope your recovery is quick and painless.

I'd sue the tat shop that did that..jk Maybe a little face powder will get you throught the work day when you decide to go..

Luckily I didn't get any scratches on my face. I just added a couple to the scratch board which is my left arm.

LOL, I crashed in that same spot yesterday.

DeadlyStryker · 04-30-2008, 09:08 AM

Haha. There was a guy that had ran before me on his Kona, and he had stopped around the bend to see if I made the turn. He watched me fly strait for him! There was a group of about 5 guys that had said they were high school friends that just regrouped, then there was a guy practicing for race, and another solo guy. Also a guy with music coming from his iPhone! This was at about 5:45pm.

wrxkid · 04-30-2008, 09:20 AM

We were there around 7:20 ish, must have missed ya

2wheel_lee · 04-30-2008, 10:09 AM

Is the bike OK? Did you do damage the trail when you slid out?

j/k Get well!

tkblazer · 04-30-2008, 10:29 AM

at least you missed the cactus... i landed on one that was on the left fork of that turn

OMR · 04-30-2008, 11:44 AM

... the park ranger called and wants you to come back and pick up the skin you left behind.... ouch!

Luckily, no broken bones here, just a Phamtom of the Opera face for a few days....

Rockinthecasbah · 04-30-2008, 05:26 PM

I didnt see you I was there around 4 on my 29er

1x1clyde · 04-30-2008, 06:10 PM

Has Chris- Sar Boats- seen your pix

Glad you are ok but leave the dirt on my trail please

mfoga · 04-30-2008, 06:58 PM

Ouch, hope you heal up ok. I am seriously thinking its time for a full face helmet. I would rather be hot then have that I think.
