    771 Racing - Mistakes were made!

    NEMM 2015 August Double Header - Mistakes were made! ? OutOfSpec.COM

    For those that didn't know already, I'm throwing the towel in for the year. My budget has been zapped and other external events have made me ill thanks to stress. I wasn't even supposed to do this event but my wife agreed that damn it, after all the work to get the bike to this stage I just HAD to ride it.

    "That lit a fuse in me that should not have been lit" I've felt that feeling once. Maybe twice.

    Dirt biking makes everything better. And it's mostly free. Brap on.

    So far that KTM has been one of the smartest things I've spent money on.

    damn!!! sorry to hear about the get off dude!!!

    hope you get a quick and complete recover!

    That lit a fuse in me that should not have been lit. I was beyond tired and already forgetting most everything I know about riding, it was not the right time to step up the aggression but that's exactly what I did.
    we all know this well...bummer

    So, at the moment the Yamaha came through the event beautifully, only one minor scar as a reminder of my stupidity.
    dirt bikes are the best crashers out there

    but man; you must've gone down hard and awkward...that is a long list of hurting injuries especially since full leathers have some sort of padding

    I've gone a couple times...looped wheelie...mx washout...usually land on the knees first; but I never thought to wear knee guards under street leathers...too bulky. sore palms...shoulders banged up but never damaged...back torn soft tissue, but it healed completely and I lift weights with it now. Boots upmost importance but I've done a mean sprain on an ankle that still hasn't fully healed...
