hayleyearth Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 In the 'real world' they say a ladies purse should suit her shoes.... does it mean in riding your gloves should suit your shoes? Well.... Bizkit031 1

Guest Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Good gear for AM/Enduro is essential Raydek and Capricorn 2
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Good gear for AM/Enduro is essential Yeah dude, that was NASTY. Can't believe you still rode the rest of the trail after that "graze". And on your first run, nogal!! BTW - the offending branch was Leathermanned (saw attachment) as it really really is in a precarious position.
hayleyearth Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Good gear for AM/Enduro is essential neeeeeee sies man! Almost puked on my pc! BSG 1
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 neeeeeee sies man! Almost puked on my pc! You could actually see the muscle rotating and actuating inside there. However - what this pic shows is that Mr Bouwers needs to eat more. Much more.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 On that though - I don't think anything apart from a suit of armour would have prevented that from doing what it did, where it did. Just glad it wasn't your face!
Guest Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 glad to have been with a a great bunch of riders Yeah, is good you removed those takke. Still had a rad run though Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 1
Skylark Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 glad to have been with a a great bunch of riders Yeah, is good you removed those takke. Still had a rad run though [emoji106]Ow, did you get it stitched?
Guest Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 Ow, did you get it stitched?Ja, sure did.An awesome Dr Odendaal, an ex SADF medic, cleaned it out and stitched it up in a matter of minutes. Super cool. No pain.Gonna see him later today to see if external stitches can be removed yet.Specially opened up his office to sort it out chop chop. Got internal and external stitching done as damage was pretty deep inside.Missed main artery and damaged no muscle tissue, nerves or ligaments. No bleeding whatsoever throughout or pain. Crazy thing is that If I had braked any less or later & not lay the bike down the branch would have gone through my face/head or throat or severed the artery in my arm. Pretty wild. Interestingly enough I knew I shouldn't have gone to Paarl, but blew it off instead.Even got a txt before leaving to rather come ride the new black trail at Jonkers.Turned that down as I felt I gave my word to go ride with others and don't like going back on my word. There's more going on around us than we realise ... we just need to pay attention to the detail. .... ... speak out loud though .... to myself ... as I keep playing the incident back through my mind. It is the mountain after all ... like going for a surf.Never turn your back on the sea or waves. Aaaaagh , just talking nonsense now. Be safe out there Happy Trails Skylark, Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, trail - er - park and 3 others 6
