Sweet, have you taken that over any sweet jumps?   Use your head and you'll be fine.  Most of the accidents in my neck of the woods (sandlake) are usually due to shear stupidity.  Morons trying to be cool, or letting your kids play on them unsupervised.  Once in a while there is a death due to a widowmaker while riding through the forests!  If you don't know what a widowmaker is, that's when a branch or part of a tree falls down and kills ya!  Usually with some great force. I know of a guy who had his head taken off by a big branch that was falling out of the tree while trail riding!  Just the chances we take while out having some fun!

We used to call widowmakers the branches that came in right about neck level.  riding in the woods, under the canopy, sometimes you don't see them until its too late :yikes:

oh yeah!

Started the trike ths evening, to prove to spotter that it did run (could never get it to start around her) and the non-working headlight came on!! :woohoo:  dunno why, but it works now!
:usa: Its better to die on your feet than live on your knees :usa:

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "
