Blog #4

Last summer my friend Jeremy and I were out mountain biking in Golden BC on mount 7. We were riding down a trail called Loam trail. If you do not know what loam is, it is very soft dirt and shredded wood and other natural stuff. Anyway Jeremy and I were riding down the trail and we were going at a fast speed. Around the next corner was a fallen tree. The tree was no more than 10inches thick and was collapsed across the trail. As I came around the corner I started to brake heavily in to it but I knew I was not going to stop in time because of the loam, so I hopped over it and slowed to a stop. Then I crooked to see Jeremy trying to stop, nevertheless it was too late. His front wheel hit the tree and he flew over the front of his bike and landed on his stomach. He then started to slide down on his front, hands outstretched and he said one thing “wheeeee”. We both laughed uncontrollably for a good 10 seconds. Then we started riding again.
