    LOL! I grabbed a sapling on the way down.

    Doh! I always forget that one and have bruised myself being a jack*ss for not remembering.

    The first day I rode my new bike I forgot to treat sand like a downhill and make sure your weight is back. I sent myself over the bars and got some purty bruises to show for it. Oh and a concussion check. The best bruise I have had is my entire butt cheek from falling on rock. It was black, purple and green.

    Just a tiny bit accident prone.

    I took a two week hiatus from mtb'ing because I didn't want bruises, scrapes, or scratches at my son's wedding yesterday. Didn't keep me off the road though!
