Me vs. the line in my yard

Line in yard: 2
Me: 1

Yeah, I'm retarded, but what else is new. Yesterday I was bored and decided there was no better way to spend the time then trying to make my yard into a bike park. I decided to give this line a try:

Obviously I went over the handlebars, and wrecked. After a couple minutes of recuperating I gave it another try and stuck it. About 30 minutes later I felt something floating around in mouth, and spit out a chunk of tooth. And now about 15 minutes ago I looked at my bike and realized my rotor is horribly bent. So yeah, I lost.

Sunday I'm going to go look for some armor and a fullface helmet (which I can hopefully use for skiing as well) so I don't hurt myself any more. :dunce:

Get the mullet now:smile:

Also, please shrink the last pic. I am at work

bvibert · Aug 1, 2008

Yeah, were is the mullet???

Chicks dig dudes with missing bits of teeth. Bend that rotor back and you're good to go.

ETA: at least you stuck it. Was the car there when you attempted it? If so then at least you didn't hit that either...

o3jeff · Aug 1, 2008

Rip off the rotor, you don't need it and use it as a bash guard.

o3jeff · Aug 1, 2008

PM drjeff, see if he has any extra teef laying around:wink:

Actually just kidding, sucks that you already got the first battle scar on yourself and the bike.

Somehow I doubt that's his first battle scar...

You need a camera crew to follow you around. It'd be like jackass on a bike and skis. :lol:

.

I've got some filling material that's either blue or purple with sparkles in it that would look GREAT there!

(and yes I actually do have blue and purple sparkle filling material, I just usually use it only on baby teeth

)

I thought Joe Dirt was a fictional character.....

cbcbd · Aug 1, 2008

dude, looks like my front teeth. I'm surprised you didn't hit a nerve and had horrible pain like I did.

I'm guessing you went over on the drop, not the stairs, eh...

And where is the vid? There is an icon for a vid and I wanna see it.

Marc · Aug 1, 2008

Dude... just..... dude.

A month of riding and you've already broken your front tooth = you're doing it wrong.

Damnit!!! Hopefully it comes up soon again. That got my hopes up so much, then I was let down by a crappy pair of oakly shorts. :angry:

Right after I got it fixed today I thought that to myself. Man I would have gotten so many chicks...

Hah, that rotor is super messed up. I'm going to try to fix it, but it is looking pretty doubtful. Luckily they're only $30.

Good idea. I don't really use the back break much anyway. How do you recommend I get it on the crank? Super glue maybe?

Yeah, my legs and arms are covered with cuts. Hopefully I'll be getting leg + arm pads + fullface this week so I'll be free of scars and missing teeth for a while. Though it will probably just make me go bigger so I get even more hurt. I'm already eyeing this 8 footer with a perfect landing up Lynn woods, but I'm waiting until I have more protection.

It's been on before, so I'd guess it'll be on again.

andyzee · Aug 1, 2008

I think it's an improved look.
