gravel? |
Yeah I think it's both me trying to get my knee down and gravel that I didn't see. I just know I was stupid and lesson learned. Good thing my frame slider took the hit saved me from a lot of headaches :) Posted via RS Mobile |
years ago when i was riding i locked my rear breaks, touge battled with a transit bus to a corner. broke my right leg. lesson: do not wear regular shoes |
damn, sorry to hear that. :( |
The only story I have is definitely make sure you're at the right speed/gear before turning. I had to downshift in a corner, didn't blip the throttle, locked the rear wheel and almost lowsided. Still getting used to what speed I can take corners at and often misjudge too slow (which is a good thing!), yet judged this one too fast. |
yep frame sliders are good for the super slow drops or let downs other than that..anything higher speed they pretty much not gonna do that much..but if you go down when your going that fast chances are you probably won't get back up any way haha |
watched my buddy go down at 120kmh cuz he was goin too fast for his confidence level and wouldnt lean far enough over ,so he flew off the corner.broken collarbone,severe road rash,wrecked $700 helmet and had to replace plastics and screen. |
