a conversation about a very short group ride on 3/3/24. A whole mile of gravel before I made a few unwise decisions. However it sure was fun... Until it wasn't!
Seriously, I’m glad it wasn’t worse, and that you and the bike are just fine. A few scratches, and a slight bend in the crash bars just turned it into a true ADV bike!!
Glad you’re ok. It happens man! Lucky you had good boots. I had cheap adventure boots on last year when I took a spill and broke my ankle. So now I wear motocross boots. Keep having fun!
its been almost 7 weeks now, seems like a broken ankle would have healed by now... I must have done a number on my ligaments and tendons. Hopefully soon I'll be back on the dirt and gravel!
dang, glad your good to go, i have klim adv boots, and i keep looking at motocross boots.......i'm not gonna lie, i was cracking up at your buddy trying to keep from laughing, because that is exactly what would happen to me with my friends LOL
Yes sir, if you ride with friends long enough, the opportunity is there to make fun of each others poor choices! Once you know they are ok of course! 😂😂😂
Glad there’s no serious damage to you or the bike! The ground has definitely gotten harder over the years. Wish someone would look into that!
These two Gents right here really make riding fun and provide honest advise. stay safe and ride on!
Thanks AB!!!

So sorry that happened! Glad it wasn't worse.

Crashing sucks but I'm glad you're ok.
Thanks! Just some character marks and bumps and bruises!
glad it wasn't any worse than just a sprain. Rear we wear these types of boots

@@ridingthethinlinesexactly!! me and my friends are pretty rough on each other lol
@@Motoramblingsyou did!!! I was cracking up!

Asphalt hurts when you hit it.
Bet the wife chewed you pretty bad. 😂
Glad nothing is broken and bikes can be fixed or bought by insurance companies 😎👍
Luckily it wasn’t asphalt, and he was very lucky nothing broke. The bike just has a bit more “character” now!😂😂
You sir are correct! The wife was none too happy with me!!! However after 37 years she kinda expects some of my foolishness to catch up with me!😂😂😂
Don't sweat it man... we all make mistakes. In 6 months it will be but a distant memory
I went down about a year ago and the bike bounced off my leg. Caused swelling and than a nasty hematoma and bruising.
It’s no fun when the bike starts riding you! 😢
Glad it wasn't worse! Now the bike has more "personality" and patina.
Right!?!
I need a haircut too
Haha! No more haircuts!
If you’re going to be dumb, you better be tough! Too soon?😂😂😂😂
Nah! There will be more opportunities… just a matter of time!🤣
@@ridingthethinlines I’m trying to bite my tongue, just a little, because I know it’ll be me , probably sooner rather than later!😂😂😂
