Face plants in rock gardens with a cross country helmet are slightly unnerving. After smashing his face on the rock, he got up an kept going like it was nothing. He is assuredly feeling it tonight.

I thought 29ers rolled over everything?

"We got some dumbass motherf*ckers floating around this country." -George Carlin, American.
See, when I used to buy caps 10 years ago, the label said "One size fits all". Which to me meant "This cap is only available in one size." A couple of years later, that same label said "One size fits most". Why? Because some nitpicker said "But it doesn't fit my child's head...". He was right, though maybe he should have bought a child cap.
The same thing is going on here: "29ers roll over everything". No they do not, obviously. My advice is: Try riding over a 2 meter high concrecte wall. Try it. Film the whole thing, and then come back and say "I thought 29ers rolled over everything".
"Dumbass motherf*ckers"...

After this 40 foot huck to flat the rider came un-glued and went for a tumble into the next rock garden. Lucky for him the protective spandex absorbed all the impact's. These 29erds are wild and crazy guys.

It was actually a 27.5 bike, but as we know they never crash, or even think about crashing, if fact I am hiding in my
closet because the wheel size police will kill me for even mentioning 27.5 and crash in the same sentence, ARGH
