I rode a new trail today which is now one of my favourites ever, I hit this cool step up jump thing twice, which looked alot harder than it was. Then later on in the trail after a steep corner to corner to corner section theres a drop. It looked rather small, 6-8 feet, so i rolled off. I landed about 12 feet down on a really really shallow part of the landing, bounced off the bike, went flying about 8 feet and my arm smashed into a log, whilst i landed HEAD FIRST on a stump :| I bounced off and didnt feel a thing *other than my arm*, i swear the dreads aborbed it all, i had an oben faced helmet, and luckely i just got a bit of dirt in the face.

Hahha nope, the stump was only there cuz they cut a tree out of the way, it was rock hard. I think my arm took up alot of the impact, but seriously, i just BOUNCED off, the guy i was ridin with said it looked crazy, and my head bent down so it looked like a broken neck sorta crash.....i was lucky, i rode away from it like nothin. My arm feels like a tone of bee stings though, lol.

damn man, that sounds rough. Glad you're alright. Anyone who listens to Dispatch has the good karma.

Pete - Just because you're a pole smoker instead of a pot smoker, doesn't give you the right to point and laugh. In fact, it gives the pot smokers the right to point and laugh.
