When I was about 16, my friends and I were really into Mountain Biking, we used to hang around the tracks the local MTB club used, some of which were a little nasty. There was a large drop off on the side of a hill, about 3m... Every afternoon for about a month we sat up the top all afternoon trying to build up enough courage to ride it............. Eventually, when I got a brand new bike for my Birthday, I decided to go down it...... I went over the handle bars, the pedal snapped, crank went THROUGH my leg, and then I hit a tree midair and broke one rib!!! Didnt hurt suprisingly, though about a day later when I was lying in hospital my entire body felt like it had been hit by a subway train. About a month later, one of the senior MTB members was riding down the same drop off by himself, and and the same thing happened, but his injuries were a LOT worse... For Darwin members, those tracks are hidden off the walking path at lee point. (The path that goes past the RAAF radar thingo place). Anyone know if they're still there?
I was only going about 30km an hour..... I would really hate to stack on a moto going 80+ lol!!!!
