Kick my sick, post a picture

I am sick(nothing serious) and can't really ride to well right now. But I love looking at all of the rest of you out having fun and biking. Please post a pic/video so I can convince my immune system it wants to go back out and play. Thank you!

Awesome video. I have no idea if it will make the OP's immune system kick into overdrive but it's motivated me to go hit the trails today. Thanks

If you haven't seen this video take a look. It could be you on your next ride. If you want some more laughs take a look at the other youtube videos by remi.

Excellent tunes! Huge fan of those two bands.

The crashing was nice, too. Well, maybe not "nice", but you know.

Hehehe. The crashes weren't bad at all. No injuries, aside from a couple scuffs.
My 2 fav bands.
I've been trying to see them every time they are in the bay area.
Them and the new Jello project, which has Ralphie from VF on guitar.
Good stuff.
