Ahhh Night rides.
Once we got rolling, Maverick cooled down. After we climbed a long gravel rd., we got to a sick piece of single track. We headed down the trail in Top Gun fashion twisting and turning at mach speeds. On our final approach to Thrift Cove, Maverick was leading me down a path much faster than I should have been going.
All of a sudden I found myself headed for a tree at a rate of speed around 20-25mph. I twisted my body as hard as I could, but to no avail! I hit the tree at full speed and it sent me into a flat spin down Black Mnt. trail. I hit so hard that I landed on my feet facing the direction I'd just come from-- back up the trail and about 10-15 feet away from the tree that I'd just hit with my bike. Maverick heard the impact and asked me if I was OK. I don't recall my response. I want to thank all of the boys for not running over me. I look forward to getting back out there as soon as I heal up.
I think I tore my rotator cuff. I would have loved to have seen a doctor on Friday, but it was Labor Day weekend and they were all booked up and leaving at 1:00pm. I hope to see one on Tuesday.
It should fun this year. I have no clue how I am going to feel, training has taken a backseat to life. My one and only goal is to have a good time. So my pace will be what ever feels fun at that time. I hope to see ya' out there.
