Yesterday VosBike and I headed out to some great trails. They weren't very long, but great fun. Lots of good climbs and descents, fast singletrack, some technical stuff... just great fun.
I had the best endo ever... resulting from an ill-fated hop of a rather tall log. My rear tire came down hard on the log, and rocketed me off my seat and over the handlebars. I landed square on my forehead. My first thought was "I LOVE my helmet!" then I relized I was in searing pain. *shrug*
Somehow my seat was brutally mangled. It was bent very sharply to the right. How this happened, I do not know. I had Vos hold the bike while I muscled it back into shape, and we carried on.
Vos then took a nasty crash, and smashed his kneecap onto a fallen log. He had hit the same knee a day before in another crash. Poor fellow.
We didn't encounter a single unleashed dog I might add! :D
Well I'm out, see ya'll later! :)
