    I was kinda hoping for a story like when duke777 got t-boned by a deer one night, just because it would have been so random. Then again what the hell would a lynx have been doing in south oc?

    I all seriousness hope you heal up quick. Lack of memory means you got your bell rung damn good; be careful with that. At least it's now and not a the beginning of summer, right?

    As requested. Actually not too bad, other than the concussion. I'll be in the sling for 3-4 weeks. Fairly substantial hip bruise too.

    Oh and thanks to Ms. Upton for the get well card... :clap:

    That's no good but at least you're up and around again and not still in the hospital. Best wishes for a quick recovery.

    Chris, I got thrown by that step-up about 15 yrs ago. Got thrown to the right, OTB INTO a CHOLLA. Imbeded my backside into it...Had to throw the camelback and gloves away due to the thorns. I would brush my arms and hands months later and could still feel the micro-thorns. Sucked. long walk down as I couldn't really sit...Glad you're doing ok.

    Nice card TIKI...

    More healing vibes your way!

    Man some of the comments on this thread are cracking me up. Lol. Sorry to hear about you bonking your head. Good healing vibes! Too bad you're not a GoProer.

    Chris I was wondering where you'd been hiding the past couple days.. sorry to hear you went down hard.. and kinda shocked you did it at that little step up at the top.. you must have been hauling ass to mess that up.. I know you like to sandbag and claim you're slow, but anyone who has seen you ride knows you're hardly slow.. heal fast buddy..

    Well you weren't going to win any beauty contests BEFORE the crash, so as long as the bike is ok, you couldn't ask for a better outcome.

    Glad you're ok.

    Wow! Glad you're ok. I took a good fall on Lynx about 3 weeks ago. I was alone. I laugh about it but then I read stuff like this and it kinda scares me. Even on the most careful days accidents happen. Heal up quickly!
