Hey

...so you went 80ft? That's a pretty hardcore effort, pics or it didn't happen...because I'm pretty sure you didn't do that.
I think he meant that he did 50ft on a 30ft jump, meaning he cleared it by 20ft... thus crashing and hurting.

I did that trying to film with my phone!

Thinking that malvern stars had disc brakes which could handle an almost vertical section of a trail......

Got to the trail with my girlfriend and realised I had left my seat and seatpost at home an hour round trip away. So, I proceeded to ride without them, because she's a beginner and the pace of the ride was going to be slow.

We got to a wide open fast area and on autopilot I decided to take a seat (at speed) and coast whilst waiting for her to catch up.

My bum hit the tyre, then I went over the bars in a heap. I came to a stop, looked up, and saw the bike still coming towards me at a fair rate. It smashed me in the noes with the front tyre. I was very sore for a few days.

I went to jump a set of stairs (done them a couple of times), hesitated at the last minuted and decided to roll down them, I forgot my seat wasn’t down, went over the bars directly onto my left shoulder.

Couldn’t ride for 4 weeks, still can’t sleep on my left side (8 weeks later)

smashed my $350 sworks helmet, and the worst thing is my confidence has gone to shit.....

A few years back when i rode bmx i thought that it would be pretty rad to put my feet on the front pegs when i was moving. Everything was going sweet so i decided to stand up whilst my feet were on the pegs. I was going about 40km/h and when i stood up i started to wobble like crazy and i was eventually bucked off the bike. I lost heaps of skin on my right leg and the right side of my chest. Not the smartest idea.
