this summer the foam in my helmet came un glued so i decided to take it out at the skate park one day and do a run with just the plastic part on mey head. i dropped in fine and rode across the bottom of the bowl with no problem but then as i was about to go up the quarter pipe on the other side of the park the plastic came down over my eyes and i hit the quarter blind. i could see nothing and aired it out ffine surpising ly. thats the last time ill ever do that

Left my old hardtail in the driveway while working on another bike. My mom then proceeded to run over the front wheel and taco my rim. It was a very old bike, not worth anything, but it still got me places. Now I have to buy a new wheel, because I still need it to go places...

Damn what frame? Sounds like it's pretty tuff for an xc.

Sounds like this one time, I came screeming down a hill in town, and the was sitting at the park resting after a street session... well you can imagine how hot my front disc was after hitting 45mph. Well this dumbass comes by, and is like "OMG, are those real disc breaks?" he then proceeds to reach down and touch then before I can even say a word, at which point I hear sizzleing, followed by allot of screaming! IMO he got what he deserved for touching before asking permission! DUMBASS! lol
