Crash at the end....
Skills are definitely lacking after not riding dirt for 4+ months. Got squirelly in some rock gravel around a turn, missed the first tree and ended up clipping the second with my bar. Landed on my back and everything would have been fine if it weren't for reinjuring the broken ribs. Sorry for the hella shaky cam.....can't even really tell what happened, I know.

I like the way you were screaming before you hit the tree. You knew it was coming didn't you ha ha, hope your well and good!!

Haha, yeah I was screaming because of getting loose in the turn, I thought I was going to go down right there and then I really thought I was going to miss the tree....I just barely clipped it and ended up sailing about 10'. The ribs are sore today but they're better than I thought they would be so that's good, thanks man.

Hahaha, don't worry....the tree fared better than I did, haha. The ribs be aching now, don't know if they will ever really "heal".....at least that's what I'm hearing from people in the know, haha. Too bad you can't really see what happened because of the crappy vid. I really thought that I was going to clear the tree with my bar so the crash was kind of a surprise.....all I would have had to do was lean an inch and I would have been fine. I'm going back up there this Sunday and I'm getting a new Epic camera for cheap on Saturday so the video will be muuuuuch improved and it will be of a different trail up there.

Yeah it's been great to be riding again!!! Trying to get as much in before the new baby comes....due May 26th 
After that I still should be able to go a bit since it is summer after all, haha. On May 20th I'm going to a BBQ with a bunch of people from the FB page NorCal Gravity that I'm on and it's at Cow Mountain (large riding area) so that should be a blast and I'll have a bunch of vid from that too, haha.
