Bobs get dirty!

[Blueberry]

Once it became clear that Lee was going to be OK and we were just hanging around until he was ready to go, mp blurted out "Oh My God, I broke the Bobs!!!". Her expression was priceless.

LOL! Thanks for sharing the day (and next time, pretty please take a camera).

Here's hoping LeeBob has a speedy recovery

Oh no! Hope LeeBob's OK.

Popping knees, hanging upside down from a cliff, yeah, sounds like fun!

[bikerz]

Yeah, I have to echo Kim's faint remarks! You guys be careful out there!

I hope LeeBob's knee is OK - The next few days look like good ones for sitting on the couch with the leg raised and the tv remote in hand or a good book in hand.

Yeah, I'd say our mtn biking experiences are not starting out particularly auspiciously.

Lee had his knee & his jammed finger looked at at urgent care. Luckily we got there early so it hadn't already filled up with weekend warrior pre-holiday casualties.

He had xrays taken, no broken bones, yay. He did get a tetanus shot & a prescription for antibiotics (evidently the doc was more concerned about the finger than the knee). Knee is wrapped up and he's hanging out comfortably.

Geeze I hope he learned his lesson. Yeah right.

At least the little Christmas gift he has coming in the mail should help matters (Thanks for the tip SK! )

So nothing super serious at this point?

I try to stay up on my Tetanus shots (5 yr cycle) since between mtbbiking and fishing I'm exposed to "stuff."

[andtckrtoo]

Jo - I hope Lee heals quickly!!! Glad nothing is broken. Fortunately, the weather is not too condusive to cycling or being outdoors the next few days, so he won't miss much. I'd love to join you in Coyote Park or that area between December 30 and Jan 4th. If he's up for a ride. As I'm out of practive on dirt, we can go really slowly!

Sure!

Okey-dokey, I won't repeat what Chris just said about taking newbies down the Tenderfoot Trail . . . .

[aka_kim]

Geeze I hope he learned his lesson.

And that would be ...?

I have to say that on pavement LeeBob is the best bike handler I know. Does he save all the clumsy/stupid stuff for the dirt?

Oh but it was ever so graceful.

[jobob]

I'd say, so far, yes.

More stupid (as in, trying things beyond his current skill level over unfamiliar terrain) than clumsy.

I'm the clumsy one.
