Re: Always wear a helmet...
...as you wish...
i was riding my BMX bike ack then. I went down a small cliff, which made me gain speed. But, the speed I went exeeded what I could control. I lost control, the bike made me jump way over it when it it a hole and then, my lips went bleeing...can't believe how bad. Plus, my arm was scratched. Picked up my bike, crying a bit (6 yrs old...remember) and went home for healing

Re: Always wear a helmet...
I got a story too!
I forget how old i was but i was just learning how to ride a 2 wheeler. And I was so happpy. Well my house is located in a cul-de-sac. It's like a lil street with 3 houses on each side. Well, i was riding around and i was trying to get my dad's attention so he can see me. Next thing i know i hit a curb a go flying.
Another "over the handle bars" story is..when i tried stalling on my front wheel ( i always do it...) but this time i was on my driveway so the little slant downwards threw me off and i fell. Not fun, messed up my arms bad, but atleast i didnt hit my face.

Re: Always wear a helmet...
I remember when BMX's were the craze the first time around, I had one and we used to build these makeshift ramps out of bricks and plywood in the street....
Was thinking myself well cool, having it like 8 bricks high, came shooting along the road, hit the ply and just as I was taking off the bricks collapsed, the bike went nose down, I went flying over the handlebars, and ripped my eyelid pretty bad, still got a small scar from it to this day, some 20 years down the line.......
I looked like I had been dragged behind a car or something, face all scabbed up and stuff, it wasn't pretty

Re: Always wear a helmet...
I used to be into bmx bikes too, when i was like.. i dunno, 12 maybe (like 4 years ago) and we would race in the woods with the things, i had these paths set, well we would get up to speeds of like 30-40 miles an hour..
dont seem like much, but when you think about how its a bunch of kids riding in thick brush thats pretty fast.
well I went one tree too far down, so im like "fuck!" i weave in and out of a few unfamiliar trees, end up dodging them all, still without gaining speed, hit the clearing and slide on all the leaves trying to stop
so I go off the edge of what we called "the clay pitt" which is maybe... i dunno, 12 feet deep? eh, about twice my height and im 6'4 anywho, i go over the edge, face first into the ground, somehow manage not to break anything, landed right on my bike too man... talk about pain..
and my friends, great friends i had, come over to the edge and just bust into little fits of laughter... its all good, Atleast I didnt die =D *thumbs up*
