The busted ass page

[Adrian SnowdenMember]

Ten days ago I lost control at speed on a pine single. Went off the track got airborne and came down pretty hard against a large very solid pine log. Biggest cock up I have had apart from meeting bollocks. Anyway as I sit here feeling sore and sorry I got to thinking OBT doesn’t have a section for pictures of the outcomes of our balls ups.

So how about posting up some pictures of our broken bikes and bodies as memory to the times we didn’t quite nail a track.

Here’s a start. One sore thigh

Way too much camera zoom Snowy.

Here is one I found easily, circa 2001 from memory. Near Nowra, super hard pack fire trail erosion mound downhill went all wrong. Left forearm was the worst part out of shot, most of it was in gellnet by the hospital for a week. Still see scars today.

You don’t have to come off a bike to get injured

Bad day at the beach
Surfing can be a bit dangerous too (bloody rocks)
Still have a very sore back which is keeping me away from my two loves, surfing and riding
Cheers

The trouble with having big feet is they get in the way sometimes, 1 broken bone in there.

The result of being on blood thinners?

any little bump or cut results in either a massive heamatoma or bleeding to death
