Title: Mammoth downhill fail video
Post by: DannyX on July 26, 2012, 12:13:34 PM
I am sure that some of you have seen this on my facebook but for those of you that missed it here it is.
I went to Mammoth a couple weeks ago and went downhill mountainbiking. After a couple runs I started getting more confident and riding a little faster.
Ended up hitting a tree with my right shoulder and side coming around a corner wide...and out of controll. Felt like a linebacker broadsided me. I ended up riding till the end of the day but still dealing with some bruised ribbs...well worth it for the epic riding though!!
Please enjoy at my expense
its a long vid so if you want to get to the carnage fast forward to about 1:30

Maybe a future xcursion should be a weekend camping thing with available hiking and biking trails. I hope your ribs are okay...and the rest of you too.

I would love to but I would have to wrestle up a bike. I sold my trek and am still waiting for something juicy to pop up on craigslist...

That would be a fun run though! Camp, hike bike!!
