Default Busted my A$$, Lesson Learned.

Well leaving the top of a jump wrong is not a good idea. It all seemed like super slow motion but in the end I was laying flat of my a$$ in the sand with my Raptor laying sideways on top of my leg. Was not seriously hurt, everything hit rather softly. My leg however is very bruised and I feel I have some torn or stretched muscles. I will be back soon and I hate I ended the guys day short.

Great Ride I am sure it will be better DRY!!!!!!!!

See You next time.

And damn that was a high hill to climb coming home with a sore leg.

Glad to hear you are okay, how about the quad? I fell off my raptor doing a hi-speed power slide / wheelie that's about it. Where is Lyons GA?

Quad is 100% OK. Never made a complete roll. Doing slow jumps just hit VERY wrong. Lyons is the sister city to Vidalia (The sweet onion city) about 1.5hrs from Savannah

Did however manage to break my Taril Tech Dash bracket. Still do not know how that happened unless in a desperate grab I managed to snag it on the way to the ground.

I know it's not in the plans of having fun, sorry to hear of your rough landing. My kid did it 2 weekends ago. He is always jumpin. Did one wrong know has a full arm cast for six weeks. Then they will see if it heeling right so they don't have opperate. Then another six weeks in another cast. But all he can think about is if we can plan a trip for when he gets his cast off. So I guess the moral of the story is. Anything can happen, but when is the next trip.

I moved here to Denver from Savannah, Ga. about 8 years ago. Anyway, i'm sitting here busted up myself with a broken foot. Slightly shorted on a table and ate it!!! Hope we all feel better soon...later.

Sorry to hear of your injury, BUT on the other side of the coin. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one wadding up, I've got upside down three times on mine so far (wait make it four, I forgot one). You'll be back on the trail.........Later

Hey, don't worry about it. We went back riding after you left. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

As of Sunday, still wet as hell. Maybe this weekend will be dry.

There is a ride Saturday for the Relay for Life. Not sure where it is, but I am going.
