Two Wheel Blogs

One day I'll come back from the trail and not have a new cut, scrape or abrasion. I was rounding up a switchback with and overabundance of rocks and roots to make life interesting. Coming into the tough lefthander I quickly realized I hadn't built enough speed. Maybe if I was lucky I could power through it.

Or not.

Just as my left foot came over the top and began to add power the rear wheel began to spin in the loose rocks. My front hit something immobile and suddenly all forward momentum was gone. I'm not really sure what happened next but I think my left grip did this number on my leg. I parked my monkey at the top of the climb for the photo-op. By the end of my ride I was a bloody mess. Yeah baby!

At least today I can say I managed to stay upright the whole day. This little boo-boo was my one and only incident for this ride.
