Maniax Posted August 11, 2013 Author Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) I can say the same for the gloves. Shucks, it could have been bad. But my gear sacrificed themselves for my wellbeing. Kudos. Edited August 11, 2013 by Daniel Rossouw

Maniax Posted August 11, 2013 Author Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) Lucky guy.Glad you're ok.Why didn't your bunch call it? Yeah. I'm not sure why they didnt call it. They(more than me) are new to bunch riding. Probably just swerved without thinking to call it. They will probably not make that mistake again. Edited August 11, 2013 by Daniel Rossouw
