I dodged all those Lycra clad dudes this morning and tried to get sendy myself up at Maldon. Found out that my Proframe is very good at its job. It is no more.Almost got roped into a 200km round the bay in a day roady ride.
So in defiance I chucked on the full face and hit the send button.

Is the rest of you okay?I dodged all those Lycra clad dudes this morning and tried to get sendy myself up at Maldon. Found out that my Proframe is very good at its job. It is no more.
We’ll I spent a good few minutes making those weird gasping noises. Thought my ribs were toast but they’re fine. But shoulder took most of the impact from a 2m drop onto rock but I’m pretty sure it’s not broken. Couldn’t get my bike on or off the rack though. I’ll see how it goes over the next few days but suspect it’s just severely bruised. Split my forehead open somehow too.Is the rest of you okay?
Fark, what a day…We’ll I spent a good few minutes making those weird gasping noises. Thought my ribs were toast but they’re fine.

As I’m lying there trying to get my breath I notice my mates bike has dropped its chain.
When he went to grab it realised it ripped the whole rear mech off just before I did a super man impression.
It was the kangaroos fault. 110 on the Calder a roo jumps out and I had no choice but to drive over old skip. Not much damage to the bumper which had just been replaced from the last too I hit! I should have have known then it was a bad ju ju omen and turned straight around!!

That sounds very unpleasant mate…..I pulled an ooooohhhh face reading it! Fingers crossed it’s soft tissue only and heals quickly.

Thanks mate. That’s MTBing I guess. I’m just counting my blessings my missus wasn’t pissed off! That would of hurt more.That sounds very unpleasant mate…..I pulled an ooooohhhh face reading it! Fingers crossed it’s soft tissue only and heals quickly. Rest up.
