Default Fullerton Loop Tuesday night injury?

Anyone know if the guy that took a slip at at the downhill section at West Coyote Park right before Euclid is okay?

I think you might be talking about Duke777. I'm trying to get more details right now. I heard second-hand from another friend that he cracked his helmet pretty good.

Thanks guys!

Yeah it was me. I took a pretty good digger. Must of had a concussion because I don't remember anything. My helmet saved me and cracked in at least 3-4 places.

Really big bruises on my right side and make moving around very difficult. But didn't break anything and everything checked out ok with the doctor. He is the same doctor that treat my friend who broke his face.

Yes fully strikes again and this is my hardest crash to date. Won't be riding for a couple of weeks....that sucks.

Thanks again for your concern everyone.

I'll see you guys on the trail....soon!

OhYeah, he was riding alone. Pretty lucky though. I think a riding bud, one of Fully regulars who happened to be riding (not on STR) found him. Another lady, I guess a nurse showed up to and immediately called 911.

my brother crashed at that same spot about 2 months. He twisted his stem and bars after he went over the balls. He was fine though and i'm glad to hear that you are too!

now the important question... is the bike ok?!?!
