I took a close inspection of some woodwork at Watchmoor bike park, Ringwood today, damn wet slippy boards. Bike okay, but broken helmet, lumpy face, achey shoulder, knife-in-ribs, extra bum cheek on my hip, and red shiny knee.
Riding for a couple of hours after, I kept getting really strong deja-vous followed by nausea. Sipping port from a hip flask and a visit to the pub after did help though, and feeling much better now thank-you for asking. Getting out of bed tomorrow morning may be a slow, painful task though.
My first visit to Watchmoor, and some great stuff there, but not best to do 5ft drops on an xc hardtail with skinnyish tyres on damp woodwork.
I’m going to have to buy a bigger bike 🙂
