In places there are side trails next to the bicycle path that go over tall mounds, along ridges, etc. I was doing that when I saw two woman standing and thought they probably have dogs. When I got to the down slope of the ridge I saw the dogs in tall grass and that I had a window of opportunity to get by them fast. But then came a tall mound and I was going so fast that when I came down the other side I barely stayed on a curve and hit my helmet on a heavy branch which shook my head back. When I got home I saw I had a bunch of dried leaf bits in my hair and showed my family.
I highly recommend to always wear a helmet.
Today it saved me the pain and hassle of being a bloody mess.
Yesterday I came across the teeth, hair, and eyes of two bikers who persisted in riding two abreast in front oof a semi. Helmets didn’t help ‘em much an they won’t be sharing it with anyone.
So did the helmet protect you from the dogs?
This cool. 60 yr old Road biker who finds the roads more dangerous as I get older. May switch to trail riding this winter. Currently in Adirondacks and found some nice roads. Good to something more than eating and sitting on the dock
Or...you coulda just slowed down instead of being a typical jerk bike-rider.
As a result, I used three gallons of gas in July, and two gallons in June.
That's 11.3 and 7.5 litres of petrol. 8~)
You thought calling someone a jerk while posting as a jerk was worthwhile.
Maybe it was a trap. Dogs just want to relieve themselves. Who knows what those German women were planning.
Probably lots of trails, maybe closer to Saranac Lake. Most trails are geared towards hiking the high peaks, too steep and rocky generally for bikes.
I admit I’m a jerk.
Bike riders rarely, if ever, admit they’re jerks. But their actions admit it for them...as you admitted in your story of being a jerk.
Many happy limbs to ya...
Cool story, bro.
p.s. Soccer too.
So you are an idiot also because my story has nothing to do with being a jerk, jerk.
Happy for your pathetic existence.
Thanks, bruh.
#MeToo
Probly something to do with Jews. You know how them Germans are.
“This morning I crashed....”
“Cool story, bro.”
That’s all a Qtard needs. You will fill in the rest however your fragile psyche wishes.
So...you were going too fast for conditions, lost control, had an accident...luckily only involving you...but other people and their animals were nearby.
Nope...that is pretty much the definition of "jerk".
