Balsie Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Dundee MTB Track 1 Me 0!! It's amazing you do a section of track a million times so you assume you can relax.... Don't be fooled!!
carbon29er Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Don't I feel you pain... Last Friday I hit the mast and had an awesome descent. Until the 2nd last corner on the tar. 48.4kph to 0kph in 6 metres. 3 days in hospital, fractured ribs, collapsed lungs and some damage to the stomach muscles. Thank goodness nothing serious though, just strong pain killers and highly immobile for 10 days now! All because I've done that path at speed hundreds of times. TopFuel 1
eddy Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Oops, though you were talking about me on the bridge across the beach at Sani, wide and flat on the sand, i sat up, hands off the bar and turned around to look for my partner behind me.............

Mr SingleTrack Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Dundee MTB Track 1 Me 0!! It's amazing you do a section of track a million times so you assume you can relax.... Don't be fooled!! That looks more like a carpet burn... Heal up fast bud, and keep the cranks turning

Done ribs twice, luckily not run me lungs through, still not fun. Keep still and eat painkillers.

Can catch you out if you're not careful! Especially if you run your pressures low, like I do! 2 wheel drift for the win!
Balsie Posted June 10, 2013 Author Posted June 10, 2013 That looks more like a carpet burn... Heal up fast bud, and keep the cranks turning If you look from front on it looks like an alien protruding from my hip.....I wish it was a carpet burn Chro Mo and Mr SingleTrack 2

Balsie Posted June 11, 2013 Author Posted June 11, 2013 Facepalm,climbed up the back of Mpati and on the jeep track heading down to the concrete road just before the cellphone towers. We normally do the route the other way round. Very impressed,have you ridden our track before?
