Spencer and I rode FINS today. We brought along a couple of newbies to see how they handled the trail. While they struggled to keep up, I was the one who had a hard time staying on my bike. I decided to catch some air off a small rock lip in the Crystal Crag section. As can be seen in the photos, the landing was not what could be termed a successful one. I managed to finish the ride without letting on that I was in any real pain. When I got home and started to pick the rocks out of my forearm I cried like a little girl. Okay, not really. But when my wife poured hydrogen peroxide over my wounds I did whimper a bit.
