Yep, that was my exact reaction!

Those were some big ass rocks to be bouncing off of. That's why I'm slow. :D

may be me but it seems like the guy was never in control of the bike and was in over his head.

Lol, that would suck. I love how he's flying through the air as though he's still sitting down.

Check out this for a pucker moment...

Yep.

Shiny new bike.

Shiny new gear.

Shiny new camera.

Dull old rock. :lol:

I'd prefer to ride in the woods as opposed to the street. Those rocks don't pull out in front of you. Cars will. If you go off the trail and hit a rock, it's your own fault.

Definitely, guy looked scary going slow, should of never been going that fast.

TWO dull old rocks...one he managed to t-bone while still on the gas...and another that what was left of his body landed on. :lmao:

It's the one you land on that counts. :lol:

That was my thought. That and, what did he keep looking at? He seemed unsure of so many things that when he sped up I knew it had potential for carnage.

I'm slow on dirt, I keep thinking I'm going to lose a spleen.

Dull? No way, looks like some very nice volcanic rocks. Old? Nah, probably less than 20 million years old.

OSP, don't get that camera, it can't stand up to a crash into a rock. :lol:

*note to self - stay on trail!

Had a similar accident on my last dirt ride. Front wheel got off track similar to him (due to a rut) and I went head first into a tree at a good clip. Concussion for a week. Dirt just seems so ....out of control to me even at slow speeds. Guess I'm spoiled by traction and responsive string/brakes on the street. Haven't touched my dual sport since.

I've always wanted a dirt bike. Just no where to go.

LOL our dirt mantra...

"The fastest motocross rider is the least out of control"

I read somewhere that he cant wipe his own ass now because he is in adouble arm upper body cast or something or other like that.

For me, it's like riding a big heavy mountain bike that you don't have to pedal. I'm a big chickenshit though; I don't go all that fast.

I know lots of Texans who ride dirt bikes. Of course the reason I know them is because they all come up to Oklahoma to ride our trails.

Wow!!!

ouch...
