hey guys and gals,
figured Id share with ya my experiences on monday night, ( keep in mind im typin with one hand so bare with the spelling)
I've been into BMX biking for around 5 years now and on monday night we ecided to go to south county trails
(its off highway55 and reavis barracks road, i think its on katy's trail)
anyway after a couple runs i decided to go for a bigger double. the launch was about 5 foot, the gap was about 7.5' and the landing was 4'.
It seemed like a good idea, so i rode at it, got speed and hit it, everything was smooth. I normally try and come down at a nosedive angle so I can flow with the ramp. Well this time I was about 6" to short, hit the back of the landing with my front tire. and ate it hard.
now my collar bone sticks an inch outta my skin...
end result, broke helmet in half, concussion, broken collar bone, road rash, and an extremely sore neck.
pros: doc said if I werent wearin a helmet their was a good chance that I would
A.) broken my neck
B.) Been in the hospital still
C.) not been typin, or talkin to anyone for that matter in a looooonnnggg time.
so i think im out of bikin for a bit, what do u think???
:rotflmao:
look for the bone stickin out its gross lol
