Default Got Bit

So it happened.....

The dragon claims another victim. Fortunately it was the rebel and it only broke the rear turn signal.

Had been doing really well all weekend, still scraping peg at almost every corner. Unfortunately the one time i hit scraped the left peg it lifted the rear wheel enough and as i was coming out of the corner it got traction and shot me into the mountain side..... over the front of the bike and into the little ditch the bike and I went.

Left arm

Left leg


That's all I got, sore as hell though. Gear held up amazing. Didn't even break a stitch. Do have a small hole in my jacket and scratches on my helmet.


On a side note even after all that the rebel will be going to a new home on Thursday!

Damn. Glad to hear you are OK.

Going their just doesn't seem fun when you hear all the stories about people crashing, semis on the wrong side of the road, etc.
