Here's a couple of mine from today while filming for a longer video. Have a good laugh. ๐

my wee opps at Glentress...
Bought some brakes from Germany and couldn't be bothered to swap the levers to the 'right' side. Doing a wheelie, I grabbed a fist full of, what I thought, was rear brake and fell off onto my ass. Was actually the front. Swapped the brakes after that. Need to find that clip. Was hilarious.

I hit a tree in the bomb hole whilst doing the peaty steel city mini downhill....was hoping someone had recorded it, but nothing so far. I'm at Antur Stiniog tomorrow with the GoPro so I might have some clips from that ๐
Here's a proper comedy crash with plenty of swearing;
Look, I was tired, ok?
Fieldy - say hi to me tomorrow! Im on the white Ironhorse Sunday ๐
This is a good one for you, with a little swearword.

Edward2000 - will do! I'll be that old man on a white Heckler and my son will be there on a white Tomac Primer (it's a bit of a birthday surprise for him, as we haven't told him yet!!) there's a group of us going down....should be fun ๐

One of my better efforts from a while ago... Second one at the very start of the vid & the aftermath at the very end ;0)
Not a very exciting one.
If my awesome descending is too much for you then fast forward to about 2:15 to see the pathetic crash and if you're really lucky, MrSparkle.

Went to Antur Stiniog today but no crashes :D....did meet Edward2000 there....he's a lot faster than me!

That was you....?
Top marks for nearly uprooting the thing. We were sat up the back near the Cotic tent and thought it was a St John's Ambulance job for sure.
Haha ๐ went to the medical tent for a hole in my knee sorting out. Still in pain but dealing with it, just spent the day at Antur Stiniog.....my knees are screaming at me now!!
to be fair exiger, it looks like you're fair shifting along there.
In some ways this is my worst crash. I've mangled myself far worse than this many times, but this little beaut ruptured 2 discs in my neck, which caused nerve damage and kept me off the bike for around 9 months. (warning - contains a little cussing at the end)
Ok guys, come clean - which of you did this?
EDIT - can't get vid to link. Will try again later.
Fixed. Not me, but a riding mate on his first visit to Stile Cop.
The facebook one is class

Aye you would not think it possible to go over the bars that violently from such a small drop off at such a slow speed
Awesome skillz
Thats just how i ride at Woburn Tom. Well, the washout/OTB/thud bit anyway........... ๐
2nd visit to Glentress in a month and another spill...
First time riding the cross bike off road, prize for correctly guessing the trail at Glentress!

What???......nobody recording their crashes these days?? ๐
Shame on you all...
Incidentally fieldy your crash at steel city was recorded, I was standing next to a bloke recording all the finishers, he isn't on here though I asked.
Compilation of our crashes. Warning: concerns some ripe language
I have no idea what happened to cause the second crash. The third one hurt. A lot!
Our only excuse is that it was very, very slippery!
Me in Les Gets last year - 2 broken bones, but bike fine!!
Crash at 1:09

Compilation of our crashes
Do you guys actually manage to fit any riding in between all that crashing?? ๐
Wheelz - do you ever stay upright??? Love the music btw!! I'm off to Les Gets tonight, and definitely recognised a few bits there (Pleney-LEs Gets link, Chavannes 4x track)
I crash a lot. Most of them on video but I think this is the only one YouTube:
at 1:47.
Some comedy ones here though I did fracture a couple of ribs on the POV shot.
