Yeah, sorry JP and I couldn't do more runs that day. Too bad he had to drive me to the hospital for two broken vertebrae.

You need to get more hardcore. A broken back is no excuse for the gnar!

Yeah, toughen up Sally.
You have a lot of vertebrae, what do you need those two for?

You should have used "internet magic" to heal your back.
Because evidently it is so strong that people can come online, and they are a whole different rider than they are in real life. Magic I tell ya.

Poooof! Today, I am Steve Peat.

hey ben, remember the last time sinatorj rode up here at windrock? he and doug were in the parkinglot licking their darkhollow wounds as we went up for another run. and has the illustrious bizutch ever not had his or his bikes ass handed to him up here?(he is the broken chain and derailleur king.) i seem to remember him piling it up on the very first turn at one of the races. the list of humbled arrogance is long and star filled up here. bring on that little asx, we'll see what they got.(sarcasm, ya gotta love it.)

yeah...what are we thinkin' trying to ride faster and faster and faster and push the limits of traction, freight training...I should do like you and putter down the mountain alone in a slow, methodical manner so as to keep my hands intact for typing long sentences online...

Yep, it is winter time, it happens every year.
It is like that ancient chinese proverb:

He who ride too little, will becometh giant douche.

(or something I just made up)

been there too man. it sucks. such is the life of a windrock local. sooner or later.... and he wasn't bouncing around at that point either.

 

[bpatterson6]

do they make a bike short enough for you stand over the top tube on?
Perhaps this bike would give you the clearance you need?

Damn that's funny. I just bought my 3 year old daughter that bike for christmas...

 

[dhbuilder]

round these parts, when the bikes get put up, the tools and hiking boots get dusted off and put to good use. no matter how cold it gets outside.that way my old arthritic fingers can stay just limber enough to drone out long sentences.

 

[profro]

The cool thing is that one of the peices that broke off is lodged in the muscle in my back. I can feel it with my hand. Its pretty freaky feeling.

The weather was fine today in Fletcher. I was over that way picking up my new steed for the up coming year. neaky:

 

[Jeremy R]

Sweet.
That shock looks super light.

 

[profro]

The whole bike weights 14 lbs with the torrisional PVC shock and the virtual wheelset, fork, brakes, and handlebar.

Dude, good luck with that whole broken back. That really sucks. Makes underwater basket weaving seem like a good idea, but splinters are stil an issue. Props on the new Morewood, I gotta try and find me a new DH bike and those look pretty good.

No worries. I broke my back almost 3 years ago. I was the easiest bones to heal. My wrist has been another story.

Hah hah! It just got delayed by another 1-1 1/2 hours too. I just got back from the assembly room 30 minutes ago . I was over there getting a full tour and demonstration on the DYNO! Holy crap is that thing gonna be cool. I can just about guarantee you yours was one of the bunch sitting there!! That dyno was sick...sick...SICK!

 

[bizutch]

I take personal responsibility for Doug not being able to ride since it's my fault for BS'ing with the crew for far too long.
