This is why I wear a helmet while mountain biking, and it's also a good object lesson in proper tire selection. This is why you don't use semi-slick tires in mud. No traction = a fall waiting to happen.

Was that guy really waiting to be photographed?

The guy is aerius

And aerius, you're laughing, so you didn't get hurt

I've had quite a few falls like that recently, damned ice and snow is even worse than mud.. That and not knowing the tracks have been the source of many joyous moments (at least for the guys riding with me).

BTW, I really like the photo I have as avatar. Yesterday we went to the mountains, picked one which apparently had no snow. And it didn't for most of the tracks.. until we arrived to a downhill track in a valley with no Sun..

Yes and no. I was suppose to do something cool like jumping my bike or something while riding down that trail, and the guy would take a picture of me when, well, I did something cool that would be photo worthy. Unfortunately I lost traction and fell, which the photographer thought was pretty cool so he took a picture of that.

I see you've discovered the joy of winter riding. The good part is it doesn't hurt when you fall on snow.

I always seem to fall on the ice.

I wish I had a picture of the time he rode right into a tree!

He was leading me and several other people on a group ride not to far from my home..he was out front riding with one hand while giving us the guided tour and pointing out the sights. He uh, kinda wasn't paying enough attention to where he was going and smacked right into a tree!

I can laugh because I know he didn't die. Though maybe he suffered horrible brain damage? Might explain why he went looking for dolphin sex... That was you who found it, right? Or am I going old and senile?

Both?

As far as I know Shep was the one who introduced Dolphinsex.org to SD.net. I came across it on my first day on this board way back when, ah the memories.
