Top Of The Table

Finally yes i know... it is here, the post ive been promising!
but first a little side not about my stich through my nail,
which comes out monday (hell yes i cant wait)

ok the best thing about this stich is when at work and my boss comes to talk to me, and i really dont want to talk to him, i just bring up the subject on how the stich got put in and how painfull it was, and he just wiggs out and walks away.... it is soo cool and what a weapon against doin actuall work! yes i love this and use it way to much, but hay, i like getting paid for (excuse my language) fucken the dog!

it is great to see him quiver like a leaf on a tree on a windy day, then goo "UUUggghhhh" and quickly walk away, my superviosr even ques me to do it when he is aournd, we work well together! haha.

ok ok ok, on to the true story! haha i make him walk away! ive done so little today!
ok....

so this is a squid and grunt mountain bike story again... and it is in grandbe again
and it is at the slate drop off... again, i really promis that there will be only a few more there, and hope fully no more at the slate, its getting old to me.

so i was riden and ahaid of grunt, and i decided to go down the slate, and i did, no fall.... untill.... i saw the huge fallen tree limb 10 to 12 feet after the drop off. I had too much speed and not enough room to manuver around it, so i decided to bunny hop the thing. but i was also making a turn at the time, now for a pro this is cake! and any one could do it, except me at this time. the squidster was not that good yet.... but i dont think i could do it now either... anyways. so i get a foot infront of the limb at a good speed, im guessing 25 to 30 mph. i was so lucky it was a pine needel and dirt landing after it! when i hopped up i made this beautiful "table top". that is when the rider hops the bike and makes it parallel to the ground underneeth him or her. the trick is to pull the bike back onder the rider and land it. and you guessed it, i made the table top and kept it there till i landed it, on my god damn side. wappp, me and the bike landed on our sides and slid at least 10 feed in the dirt and pine needels! it did not hurt that bad, my leg was all cut up and my for arm was all cut up, but that was odvious. My bike, not to bad either, just one bar end got pulled almost 180 degress from where it was, it was more like 75 degrees, but that is a lot!

Grunt navigated aound the limb and stopped a little infront of me and truned around, no laughing this time, and he was serious when he said "dude you ok?"

me i just hopped up and was like "dude, did you check that! wow, i table topped!"
grunt "yeah you topped and thats about it dude"
Squid "yeah... shut up.... wow look at the bar end!"
Grunt "yeah i see that, what you goin to do"
squid "um.... dont know, we got no tools"
Grunt "really, didnt know... moron"
squid "maybe i can turn it back by hand"
Grunt "go for it!"

so i proped the bike back on its tires and pulled tuged and put all my weight on that bar end, and it did not move. not an inch. and then it was odvious, i had to ride to the car with my bar end in the totally wrong position.

what really sucks, is that i ride my bar ends alot, not to much down hill, but to rest on straight aways and stuff like that, at the base of the mountain i really rely on them, and i felt like a total retart! and kinda looked like one too.

i was really lucky that i did not bend the handle bar or crack it, or even crush it! that would have really sucked. when we got to the car i had allen wrenches and fixed it there and we drove home, dressed my wounds (got in the pool) and next day we were back at it again, and i think i really broke my bike then. this was the old hard tail too, the mongoose with nice shocks in the front. grunt bought it from me and then he sold it to elliot for a road bike. by that time the shoks were junked, and i think there was a crack in the frame cuz it flexed a little to much. and he got a $1000 road bike with racing components on it, hahaha elliot got screwed!

well then
that is that and this is squid sayen
stay conected like ninex and ride like a bat out of hell
cuz it is more fun when you get hurt!........ well more intersting!
