Almost went over the bars this weekend, saved it, knee is swollen big time, smacked bars hard and my chest protector saved me :shiner:

Good save.... I know what its like to go over the bars and then get run over....

 

[camo fox]

That doesn't look like it felt good! Glad to see you didn't go over!

my knee is swollen like crazy but i rode the rest of the weekend, chest protector and nerfs saved me, my chest has a sore spot so i probably would have broken ribs if it was not for the chaest protector

 

[grtrat1]

You even slowed down... Imagine hitting that at full speed....Nah Im not going to imagine that.... Wouldnt be a good sight...Glad you werent seriously hurt...

Plastercity, went and preran the 20 mile track for the next days race after that, got back to camp and saw how swollen my knee was

if you pause it right in the middle you can see my shadow and how close i came to going over, my old 48 year as$ would have been hurtin

 

[grtrat1]

Dang... And I thought everyone was young bucks on here...

That's Plaster City? I go there quite a bit.. that's my testing ground..(I should go more often!) Don't recognise that sandy area, I usually go out behind the factory up to by the railway track on the right then round by the edge of the bombing range.. I went over the bars at Cal City earlier in the year, went up on a canyon wall on a corner (looked fun!) then came down into some realy deep whoops that caught me completely off guard, smashed my knee bad, still got the mark and a lump on my knee cap nearly 10 months later.. I got some nice Thor knee guards after that... too old to self heal now.. need protecting from myself.. lol
