Destroy it all!! I was out riding today, went through a trail to my friend's house. 2 hours later when i returned there was about 3 giant oak trees down across the only path. I went around, hit a tree, dented my front right wheel to hell and back, craked my swingarm, and I think I might have broken my left wrist(hurts real bad no matter how I move it)! Looks like my blaster (and possibly me) won't be riding for a while. This Sucks!

Sure blame the tree. Never mind the fact that you was the one who was in control of the quad and not the tree. Thats the same attidude of most people, lets try to blame someone else (in your case something else)instead of taking the blame for you OWN actions. Imo the woods are probably a safer place now that your not in them.

Well !First of , I don't hate nature, cause that is where I get my thrills. I am digusted at humans though! You see I weny riding the other day on a newly discouvered trail which is 30-40 miles circle route. Anyway last time out, when I thought I was/ should have been about 15 min from my truck. I came upon a newly dug dicth about 10-12 ft deep with no way around. I had to backtrack just to make it back and let me tell you when you're not that fimiliar with one area it can get tricky at times. Just hate this thing about gates & ditches.

Sorry about blaming nature only, I admit that it was partly my fault. The wind blew down some trees and when I tried to get around I slid on some mud into another tree. The only good news is my wrist is just a little sore. But you have to admit that if it happened to you then you would blame the trees first because you don't want to admit that you screwed up. When someone rides through mud and gets stuck who do you blame him or the mud?
Anyways, I've calmed down now and my blaster is down to just the frame, I was going to rebuild the whole thing next winter, but this just gave me a good opportunity.

If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is around, can anyone here you scream swear words?
