Falling



Wherewolf's pictures of the recent Corral Hollow DownHill practice at Livermore prove noshortcuts' point why falling correctly is a skill worth learning:



Do not stick your arms out.





No, seriously.





My younger brother broke his left arm this way thrice. (No, seriously.)





LOL! That's how I crashed on Bolinas Ridge Trail Ride II!





Just like this guy, my handlebar took the brunt of the impact. The X-Lite handlebar sacrificed itself to save me from snapping my wrists. Thanks, Wherewolf! Now I know what it looked like when I hit the ground :-D





One more for Santa Cruz fans: a v10 in action.
