My bike rhode me down the hill

Well, finally found the motherload of trails.

Was humming down the trail when I came upon a blind downhill grade from hell, hit the brakes, too late, one minute I was on the bike, the next it was on me.

Tore up my ankle, knee and wrist.
Still sore but I'll live.

I was wearing gloves and an armoured jacket or it would have been MUCH worse. My jacket has a big hole in the shoulder.

Wear safety gear friends!!!

Thanx

Yea, the ankle and knee still bother me a little bit but not bad.
The bike is OK but the treering is off a little.
