1 x brake unit snapped in half in aforementioned stack.

2 x D.H tyres (wear and tear)

just little things

Cracked a frame- still waiting for the warranty replacement to turn up some where betwwen Melb and Sydney so the rep said.
A spoke.
A seatclamp.
chicken sh#t stuff if you think about it.
My patience was stretched when dealing with a certain rep from Melb.
Bike still rideable I just laugh and watch the crack get bigger.

I can add a late entry. Blew up a new tyre and tube thanks to a faulty brand new floor pump guage.........

You didn't realise it was way harder to pump than normal?

I have a couple of new ones too, Nicolai Ion Mech hanger which has to come from Germany, Lower headset cup was cracked 2/3's of the way around when removed, Dinged and scored Totem stanchions and gouged and slightly dented lowers.

broke me

2 fractures in the tibial platueau
1 fracture in the fibial head
ruptured an ACL graft
detached the MCL from the base of the femur.
20 minutes into a 5&1/2hr ride that would have been jumping off stuff, riding platforms and generally having fun.

3 bits of advice about borrowing a mates bike.

* Make sure that his pedals are in good nick and lubed so that when you try and unclip you get your foot out early in the crash,
* Get used to the set up pressure required to get the Avid Luicy's to work, and
* Don't borrow ya mates bike, should have ridden the 29er and manned up.

Quiet year....
Downhill
1 x rib (my own)

3 x O ring seal in 888's - replaced with Fox 40's

Mavic 729 rim but no spokes! Yay I9 spokes not cheap and hard to get hold of!

XC
Every bearing in my XC bike - did Wild Side and then to much wet weather riding

Hope rear brake rotor (bent about 30mm) on XC bike - about 45mins into a 2 day self supported camping trip on bike - alright though cause I banged my head and didn't realise till a week later!

6 x ribs and puntured lung (not mine) - took one of the guys that works for me who rides road for his first mtb ride...and his last according to his wife
