Every trail at AF is free of snow...finally left the chest protector in the trailer this ride, what a bad idea....pulling all of third gear at the lower trail and did not see a big tit rock that launched on the rear tire, knew i had to bail as the bike was going straight for the brush pinned in third, for some reason my big dumb arse stayed on the bike and went tree bashing...felt my body fly in the air (you know the feeling when a big crash is coming, everything gets silent and you start thinking about weird stuff like am i going to walk away from this?...well, for what seemed to be 2 minutes of my failed superman trick i finally came back to earth, my eyes were closed and my body very limp (ive done this before)...BAM! my back lands on what appears to be a rock or something solid, back got stiff real quik, took a few minutes to stand up, brushed my shoulders off like "mr cool guy" and rode the rest of the day, a few cuts and black bruising on the back, no big deal
Trust me, my no skills arse will always ride with full gear
Mostly rode around the Cascade Springs side..
