Great day riding just outside Vegas. It was in the low 50's and a little windy, but can't complain. Great day!!!

This was a fun and entertaining ride.
About 40+ miles of single track with a lot of up and downs and left and rights complete with just a touch of carnage.
It was great to see and ride with nelsonccc and Jarod again. It's been a while since I last road with them.
They always put on a great ride with their knowledge of the lay of the land and I thank them for that.

This one is a look into just how slow I really am.

Not good. Here's pic of the thigh.
63382
Essentially it hurts so bad I was barely able to sleep till last night. Any movement of the muscle hurts like hell. Also the elbow is swollen and bruised so I can't raise or bend my arm. Then on Saturday I had a massive headache and a very sore neck and back so I must have hurt those as well.

I'm doing okay now. It's funny 'cause you can clearly see the handlebar shaped bruise along the top of the thigh. Quite the wreck but an absolute blast to ride with you guys again. Loved it. I've got a few pictures of the ride that I'll post up. Looks like Mtn Seeker didn't get any video of the wreck so that sucks. Now I'm looking at GoPro's so I can get one!

Glad you're ok. Well, besides the obvious stuff that's wrong with you. :D

So that's the only pic you got? What happened to the wreck video? Disappointed in you.

Not sure if it's Karma or black mail:lol8:
But either way it will be burned into my memory bro.:bandit:

Truth is I turned the dam thing off right before you went into orbit is a ballistic way.

Maybe next time brother- maybe nest time.

I do hope your felling well however.
Nobody likes to see anybody get hurt.
But deep down we all know that it is a very real possibility of risk and I think we all just accept that.
