so i was having a great day, we started the day with about 12 riders and the 4 that remanded ended up going up redwood road and than to pineridge, ino this means nothing to all of you but pineridge road is awful 180 degree turns, about 6 mph on some of them they are banked very hig, i **** you not the one i am going to discuss is nearly 45 degrees.... i was going a nice and slow 6 mph coming around this turn using some clucth control and bamn i baseball size piece of asphalt goes under the front tire shoots out almost hits the guy riding behind me and i have to put my foot down and i get to the edge of the road and now i am at the apex of this turn where it suddenly goes up a 45 degree angle so i am now at a complete stop and trying to hold my bike up, but my foot ended up off the road and the bike is leaning towards me so i had to set her down... than picked her back up, and than my battery died upon restart lol id type more in depth but i got to take off.. the rock/ ashplat piece was a lil smaller than a baseball and yes i chucked it off the road like one... hers what my tire looked like when i got home...

 

Rofl.

This is not as bad as the time a 1cm x 1cm rock put a hole in my tire. I replaced the tire then 1 week later I got a screw in the new tire.

 

i had to push my bike up and down a section of the road like 3 times before me and my buddies could get her back to life... argh... o well. could have been worse, i couldve been going into the turn hot... and than i wouldve been in trouble. anyway hope ya'lls sunday rides went better than mine

 

Hey hatebreed where is this redwood rd and pineridge located at?

 

Sorry to hear about your bad luck, but gald your ok. My Sunday ride was in the car to lunch LOL! Still to bad here to ride.

 

I know the feeling, I hit a rock about the same size and it did a number on my front wheel, but luckily I didn't go down, I think my steering stabilizer saved my ***! Glad you're ok and things didn't turn out worse than they did.
