Woods ride - 12th April 08

After absolutely lovin Friday's session we got out again last night. Glynn came out with the daddy camera setup and Ross brought the Zebdi out to get some trials on the go. Check out some really awesome photos and a bonus my head vs a tree (brutal crash). I'm left with a broken helmet (steady ladies :D) and a mushy feeling in my head, which isn't exactly unpleasant in fact its quite relaxing but is probably not too good either! :D

 

Tuck abuuuusing the barrier, he broke a bench in Looe the other day just didnt care, no respect for anything.

Absolutely sick line, respect is due this was nasty

Me hitting the middle berm nice and fast, awesome corner you have to dip the shoulder round the tree, flows so nice into a real fast step down then into another berm, or a big tree if you take the retard line......

I took the retard line!

Absolutely love this photo lol

I nailed the middle section pretty nice, went big off the step down and got the classic / dreaded 'dead sailor' jobby in the air. I landed probably 5ft to the left of the ideal line, had absolutely nowhere to go and ploughed 20mph head first into a 5ft high tree stump and when I say head first I mean it! No idea why but I just ducked my swede into it to take the full hit, it was a brutal impact but she took it like a dream, knocked the bastard thing right out of the ground! Pretty sure I flipped through air and landed in a big heap. Thankfully thanks to the awesome 661 full facer my pretty face was saved! New helmet required which sucks, back of it cracked but the bike was AOK so that's the main thing.

Like any true retard I got back on and nailed the section, no stump to hit this time so I got through ok

Hitting the lovely berm at the bottom of the Cutback, you can really chuck it in and get away with anything.

Cheers to Glynneth for comin out, really awesome photos mate you got talent mate no doubt. To check out more of Glynn's and some of our other digital photos check out our site www.digitalsouthwest.co.uk
