First crash of the season
[tag]MTB[/tag]Well I just had my first fall of the season, both bike and rider are fine though just the pride is a little dented, it was more of a comedic type affair than anything and the first time I can remember actually going A over T on the bike.
I was being a little reckless in the dark along side the golf course (with lights of course) and dropped off what I thought was a tiny drop off but of course it was a large ditch filled with water and covered with leaves so my front wheel sank faster than the Titanic throwing me hurtling forward over the handlebars. Luckily I landed fairly softly and didn’t break or hurt anything significantly plus the bike suffered no damage so it is all good.
