The Gripes Thread

Sorry to hear it man. Insurance companies are the fucking worst. Hope she gets better soon

[JaysonAych]

That's awful to hear. It sounds like, at least temporarily, she's in much better comfort and something even more serious was discovered before it got worse. But that's gotta be a rough thing for everyone to go through.

My best friend and mountain biking buddy wrecked himself at the end of our Moab trip last weekend. Now he most likely needs shoulder surgery. So my gripe is that I've lost my #1 riding partner for a while.

But Moab ruled up until that point.

Jeez, man, that sucks. Must have been some wipeout. Hope he has a swift recovery.

[ryguy79]

Yeah, he went over the handlebars hard, his shoulder took most of the impact.

[Turbojett]

what'd he hit? a rock?

[ryguy79]

Sand actually. We were on the slickrock trail, but it crosses a few sandy washes. This one was about a 2 to 3 foot drop off the rock into the wash and he aired it and went over hard when he hit the sand.

[ryguy79]

It was a badass trip though. We wanted to ride more, but it rained Friday and Saturday morning, so we stuck to the slickrock trail since its not muddy.

[ryguy79]

Awesome place. Took the long way out of Moab along the Colorado River. Plus a few from Arches NP.

[Arthur Dent]

That is pretty epic looking

What have we become!? Does Raska know about this?
