Rush Hour at The Wrangler- See Mt Bikers, Horseman and Dirt Bikers all get along.

My Road Rash. I was gawking at the scenery and washed the front wheel out in a turn  on a logging ROAD !20130616_184728_zps616fa9cf

I wacked the ground pretty quick. Didn’t think I was hurt but had to lie there a moment to make sure.
