    Re: Down Goes Mondo

    haha yea TJ has one of me literally in the air getting dragged by the bike!

    The video is pretty funny as well haha, at least I can laugh about it!

    I think the airwalls continue for a little bit then turns into concrete so that wouldn't have been nice

    Re: Down Goes Mondo

    Let me know if you wanna strip the bike down some night. You can buy beer and I can turn wrenches.

    Edit: What?

    Thanks man, I'm gonna give it about a week to just sit and just let my ankle strengthen up a bit! Then I'll rip the plastics off and see where the real damage is if any! I might need your help trying to get this bish to start again, I have a feeling its just a connection somewhere ( i already unplugged and replugged the Bank Angel Sensor so thats not it, and my battery connectors are on snug)

    Sheppo! Thanks man I appreciate it! We'll have to grab food soon...i mean....you'll have to grab food and ill watch....I'm already starting to pitch a tent thinking about next aprils trackdays

    I can help with the tear down but you'd be much better off with someone who can diagnose the problem. There are people on here that are far better than me that would be willing to help. To be clear though, I'll still drink beer that you buy.

    FFFFFFFAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!

    That sucks, bro

    Got a voicemail from Nick last night after he dropped off my trailer since he's got little girlie hands & couldn't knock on the front door louder or open it up... he said somethin bout it not being a very good day but no details & he didn't pick up his phone when I called him back Guess this is what he meant.

    That blows, bro... but like ya said, coulda been worse! If ya need a hand in any way (just not in the way), lemme know.

    First get well quick, and enjoy the pain meds

    Here are a few pictures I got yesterday - I was in the wrong place for action shots during the first session. Also a couple of the bike in your truck. The resolution is high so you can see the details.

    More so than you might think. I broke that same bone in my left leg a number of years back but for me that was a minor O yea. I have a steel rod in my leg for 18 months while the rest of the damage healed.

    looks like all those stickers were adding weight & slowing the bike down

    Ran into Nick last night and he told me about this.

    Shitty situation, glad you aren't hurt too bad. He said he thought you broke your ankle, and i guess he was pretty close to being right.

    Good luck with the recovery, and see you out there next year, you seem to be in good spirits.

    Re: Down Goes Mondo

    yea You can't let it get you down.....It was an accident, i was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Its the end of the riding season too so w/e, now it gives me an excuse to upgrade a few parts on the bike as well.

    Only thing thats gonna suck is I might not be able to run/hike or stuff like that for 4 weeks, which sucks cause I wanted to do a lot of hiking this fall.


    Bottom line it coulda been worse, both me and the bike, especially for what actually happend, so I'm happy that im good to go!
