Another killer Noble ride!... except for Ozzer who taco'ed his front wheel, and who will be awfully sore for a few days.

Home safe!!! I've been dying to get home and load up the video. It better be dramatic for the pain and suffering I'm currently going through. Sorry for the downer guys. Thanks for picking my gimp ass up at top.

^^^ I was just explaining to my grandson today, as he lay in the dirt, how knowing you're being filmed can cause people to crash...(glad you're not seriously injured).

Super fun ride today. Heal up quick Ozzer.

Definitely rider error on this one. I thought I could squeeze between the outside edge and this one rock. Literally twisted it. I normally cut inside sooner on this section like I have done many many times. I was being a little too playful today. I'm glad it was not a carbon rim. That would have sent my face straight down.

A carbon rim would have likely lived with no damage.

You obviously don't get out much on rides with other people with carbon fetish. Even ENVEs have crushed in a couple of group rides I've been in. Luckily, worst injury I've seen was just a broken collar bone. The worst injury was ENVE didn't honor its warranty bec he was a team rider -not a consumer.

Everything has a breaking point if you just hit something right (or wrong). Don't be naive.

Apparently, my wife may have broken or fractured her left wrist too during her night lap in the 24hr In the Old Pueblo race. Someone "took her out" during a pass.

Then the other group of friends behind us today also sustained a couple of injuries too at Noble. One chick had to have her bike carried out from the ravine at the Stairway section. One just OTB'd with a bloody nose bridge. Rough but fun day... woot!

That's to bad about the warranty issue. I put a scratch in one of mine, was worried that it might be deep enough to cause a fracture, even though everyone that it wasn't thru the clear coat. I sent it in and they called and told me it was a scratch in the clear coat.
When I got it back three days later they had laced my Chris King to a brand new rim.
