crashing at a trail near you...
That is the question...for you :monkey:'s that is. This is the 3rd time in 3 years that I've gotten hurt. I was at Snowshoe this weekend and took a trip OTB. Fortunately it isn't nearly as bad as what happened last year, however I can't help but wonder how close I came to breaking my neck.

How many of you :monkey:'s out there have come to this crossroad. Downhillin' is just so damn much fun but I'm getting tired of getting hurt. I know some of you will say just slow down but I just don't have any fun that way.

Anyways...just wondering what y'all think.

When you get bucked off, you gotta get back in the saddle.

How was snowshoe this weekend? Has it dried up? I am thinking about heading back down... The website says they are working on new freeride park stuff in addition to what is already open, did you see any of this, give me an update bro :thumb: :dancing:

that's why we drink it here
You need to look up Mr. Miagi's phone # and get him to hone your reflexes like that Karate Kid Punk. Then you won't crash so much.

Not that you don't sound well versed in this, but maybe practice bailing out on softer surroundings? I started riding with dirt jumping and that taught me how to crash, and how to roll out of things. Saved my arse a couple of times.

Actually, that quote reminds me of Shakespeare. What was it that Hamlet said?

"To ride........... or not to ride......... what a stupid question" :D
