    Wow. That does sounds scary 1.0. Glad you are ok for the most part. It sounds like it could have been much, much worse.

    No pics, and the fall was different from the video, it was a bit steeper and I was on the bike when I fell off the trail. I got some nasty a$$ road rash on my arms.
    I look like such a boss, thanks for the replies everyone :)

    Dude! That's nuts. So happy to hear you are ok! Sounds like quite the fall. I'm sure it hurt like whoa!

    I did basically the same thing, but instead of a cliff went right into a bayou. The place I fell is the same place kids feed the gators every day... including this one.. I walked on water that day. Never have I ever gotten out the water so fast. And as I recouped my self I counted 3 gators in the water with in 20 feet of where I had just been!!

    Wat was the rating of the trail? some of those blacks can be a bit tricky.

    That's why I keep my butt as close to sea level as possible. Glad you're doing okay.
