Took a little ride out in Calavera Lake with some fellow treaders, and then I remembered I am out of practice and shouldn't jump. The first part of the video is really the last but I thought I'd lead with the good part.

I wish I could say that I rubbed some dirt on it and kept going, instead it's couch time with ice packs and sons of anarchy on netflix.

Blood waters the grass and all but dammit it hurt! :drunk:

Ouch! Yeah, or shoulda went about two feet to the left. As soon as that vid started, I was pretty sure what & where was gonna happen. I have been thinking it needs an "Easy/Hard" sign, or better yet a "Roll/Jump" sign. Hope you're okay.

no idea,when I saw it I thought that I would be able to nail it. Pull up the front tire, level out and relax into the landing...what was that first part again. I'll stick to the easy side from now on.
