Stacked it in Biker X today...out for 10 days.

[JSinclair]

Well, after having an awesome weekend with no crashes, I stacked it in the Biker X today pretty hard ( I blame Rossco for asking me if I had bailed, thus dooming me to a bail). I overshot a table and my front end washed out. Went over the bars and wadded it up like a sack of ass.

End result. Armour did most of it's work. I might have to crash replace my TLD D2, as it took the brunt of it and looks pretty beat. I bent the crap and tore my seat.

I took a pretty good laceration on my knee (Hoots knee pads descided to get out of the way of the crash). The laceration required 4 stitches and a Bunch of scrubbing out. I have Whistler rash on my elbow and shoulder and a bit on my hip. I can;t imagine what it would have been like without all my armour. It definitly did it's job.

Thanks to Corey for stopping and making sure I wasn't retarded (Although I do remember him saying to Charlie that I was a bit wierd and that it might be hard to tell if I was acting strange later on... :lol: ). An dof course thanks to Charlie for stopping by and making sure I was altogether there.

I feel a little beat up, but not so bad considering.

Awesome weekend non the less.

I'll try to get a picture up when I change the dressing... :eek:

ouch, i think it was 100% rosscos fault. it seems like lots of people are crashing at whistler so far :(

Sorry to hear that man. Sucks Jay. Speedy recovery and get back on the V10 and ride like the devil. My question of the day is what is a wadded up sack of ass, and how does it go over the bars.
Get better you young fart.
:hurt:

Jay, it's Alex. that sucks but count your blessings that it was nothing worse. I'm almost positive I know the table you ate it on. I've seen a million people get their ass whipped up on that one and nose the landing.

On my last run yesterday I was millimeters away from doing exactly the same thing. I landed all nose, bottomed out my boxxer and rode that front wheel for long enough to think clear thoughts about how ugly my TLD was going to look when I cleared the dust off.

Sounds like we were just on opposite sides of that fine line of disaster. Keep that wound clean and you'll be blasting again in no time. I agree that it was a killer weekend. Those were some of the best days I had compared to all of last season.

I'll have to hook up with you guys again next time I'm up. I had so little time to ride this weekend (work and woman) that I just had to blast as many runs as possible while I was there.

Take it easy bra!

[Lady Gravity]

shitty jay :(
could have been worse..thank god for armor eh
i bet you won't wait 10 days ;) :D

[mike]

ahh jay that just goes to show you should have come to penticton ;)
we had a wicked time riding the local trails and racing.
yeah crashes suck. just use the next few weekdays to recover(just like i use the 5 school days a week to recover from weekends)

[HRELP]

Hope you get better soon!

[IFO]

heal up soon J....

anyone else finding the 4X course they cut this year is really better suited to shorter travel bikes ???

i wont go so far as to say i struglled on my BIGHIT going round the course but i was defintly aware of how a smaller bike would be better there....:(

[Reggaeman]

Jay NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!:P Join the cripple club:)

We should go do coffee somtime and discuss war stories:D

[FlipFantasia]

sorry to hear about the crash, scared myself on the last hit on crabapple today! gotta say I'm digging that bsx course, once I get the balls to start doubling up that rythem section it'll be all good! was a great weekend of riding, that's for sure!

[sir HUCK-A-LOT]

you think you know what whistler rash is.....you dont even know. try teel wool to the rib cages cause there is no skin left. yeah it sucks

[gimped]

"wadded it up like a sack of ass."



Can I use this quote sometimes? Best one I've seen in a while.

[~Jaurey~]

Sh*tty dealio Jay..hope healing is fast, was wondering why I didn't see you after that first day..I was hoping to get a couple of runs in with ya.
Next time :D

[corey@nsmb.com]

Yikes Jay! You had a nice meat puppet on your knee....I bet it feels nice this morning! Glad you are ok, sore I bet though.

10 days will fly by, just enjoy relaxing and a few pints and you'll be back in action in no time.

Could have been worse, you are lucky!! Long Live Body Armour!

[tomatoz]

get welll soon other wise i'll be much faster then u.

[sir HUCK-A-LOT]

hey jay....i'll race you to see who gets better quicker. :lol:

[Cheese]

Stitches in the knees is the worst! I had 6 back in augest and it was pretty painful after they stuck 25 needles in my knee to freeze it, pretty painful but I lived. We should ride some time when I get my biek back jay, it'd be fun. :)

[JSinclair]

ok not for the weak of stomach.

looks pretty good though. Nice blue stiches...

thanks for all the good thoughts.

and Jaurey I was there all weekend, I stacked it up on Monday about 1:30pm...I saw you and your GF walking away but I was filling out an accident report...

got a pic while you were in the transitional state of 'sack of ass' ?


heal up fast! looks like you wont be riding with us this weekend
:(

[Keefer]

That's not that bad... painful, and limits your movement I bet though, mighty annoying. How long till the stitches come out?

Heal up soon.

[Scarface]

did charlie straddle you and did u tell him he had nice eyes :lol:
sucks to hear, ya they just lost interest in the later half of biker X it doesnt get very interesting, theres long spaces of nothing, and those rollers are retarded cuase last year it used to be like a road gap sorta thing buit now its like big far apart rollers not too cool

[sir HUCK-A-LOT]

hahaha charlie does have nice eyes.....

[ronald55555]

nice, sack of ass, i could use some of that
nice electron blue stitches though, hope u get better soon.

i think i know which table, i have done the same thing almost everytime, nose landing, and i've seen tons of ppl do it too, there's something weird about that table.

[Burnsie]

I remember there was 3 rollers at the beggining last year, and a kid gave me 10 bucks to gap all 3, and i did it hahaha, then i bought like a hamburger and was broke.

[sir HUCK-A-LOT]

i tried gapping the woops that show up after the first turbn. on the hardtail it is doable but the fuckupfactor is definelty there. need the full face next time ebfore i try that.

[scottvelez]

Sounds like you guys need to read your shock manuals. Look for a section called "rebound adjuster"

:D

scott

[scab12]
