Went to the Bonnie Carrie Spillway today and had a good ride. Two Laps. My first lap was eventless and my second one was not.

Near the half way point, I came into a small quick curve that went in and back out as well as slightly down hill (about a six inch drop) way too fast. I hit the breaks and that is where things started to go wrong. Started to go over the bars and was then able to do some sort of Barrel Roll and landed on my back with the bike going over me and landing on the far side of me from where I started. Got up, saw I had a small scratch on my left knee that was bleeding. Picked up my bike and got going after getting the chain back on the correct gear. It was a ESPN highlight real quality crash. Too bad it was not on film. I would like to watch it, LOL. Over all I am starting to suck less and getting Better, LOL.
