I can't believe that Giro held up. They used to crumple if you dropped it off your bike

I learned to wear a full face the other night even if you think you are doing the easiest of trail riding (dj'ing is another story). Fell off my bike over the handle bars on a small XC trail and smashed my face into a log. Almost broke my nose, cuts in my mouth, and still have a fat lip and it happened on Tuesday night. Kinda stupid but easy places are where a lot of accidents occur because naturally you think that you don't have to try as hard as on something more challenging.

how exactly did he manage to position his head right under the wheels of the truck? And how did the truck touch only his helmet? I think I'll have to try this out

It said that he flipped over for slamming on the brakes. (Hydro brakes? I wonder at times.) So there's a chance that he either flipped close the curb or flipped so far that he was on the other side of the truck.
But really, a truck that didn't notice a bike flailing around? Did he flip and then put his head between the front and rear wheels? |
