This is just another one of the little things, that make riding so awsome.
Here's a couple o good ones.


Chunder: To crash

Tea Party: When a whole group of riders stops and chats, and nobody seems to want to ride on.

Male Blindness: When a male rider watches a beautiful female ride over rough terrain and stares intensely at all the jiggling parts, making him too dizzy to see straight when it's his turn to ride the same terrain.

Cleanie: One who desires to remain clean; a wimp who will not have fun, stays on the clean trails.

John Boy'ed: When a riders face gets covered with spots of mud, making him look like "John Boy" on the Waltons. "I hit that mudhole and got John boy'ed big time."

Safety Meeting: Burn a big BC fatty.

Steed: Your bike, the reason for your existence.

I have also heard 'chunder' in the following context:

"Dude, I was riding the gnar today and the ride was so good we went for beers afterwards, and I drank so much I chundered all over the floor..."

So yea...to me, 'chunder' has always meant to throw up.

chunder also works nicely to describe a seriously eroded trail...

I rag-dolled myself late last fall - hauling around a curve and got wheels taken out by a rock hidden in the leaves...bounced the first time off my back and the second time off the back of my head (w/ ff helmet on - thankfully).

ass-holed: used by a patroller to describe a bad injury to a fellow patroller
Patroller 1: "What happened down there?"
Patroller 2: "Buddy assholed himself on A-Line"

Knarly Charlie - When you are riding a log and you back tire slips off, and when you "grind" your back tire along a curb.

Ass-holed means to get pissed over here, which segue's nicely to chunder which means to have a spew.

slightly off-topic but does anyone remember seeing Bones Brigade:Search for animal chin? What the hell does "shacklackled my dillet" mean?

Probably means "sacked myself".

We often used "pissed" to imply "drunk". In many parts of the USA they don't do understand that, and if you say something like "boy, was I ever pissed" they think you were really mad.

my fav is
Dirt sample- when one crashes violently into the ground causing his/her face to come in contact with the dirt.

wet towel: dropping your front tire of a skiiny and slamming your face on the wood then hanging from it while your bikes goes for a spin below.
If you had male blindness you would pull a wet towel

district meeting-where riders go to waste their only free time to ride and sit around and listen to people who should be at a zoning meeting instead.

Trail "decommissioned" - The Man saving us from ourselves because the trail is too hard and we might get a boo boo, and at the same time The Man is saving the universe from destruction... you just have to look around at the devastation mtb trails have caused.

Dubya rides a mountain bike:eek: Maybe falling and hitting his face while mountain biking has caused him to start wars for no reason
