Brakes Can Be Bad...

In racing there is a mantra that goes: Slower is faster. I think this still applies here except slower will sometimes have you on your face faster. Thanks Matt for reminding us why the rest of us didn't want to ride off of a 5-foot ledge. You get bonus points for splattering yourself on someone else's bike. Sorry for the poor resolution, I shot this on my phone. Next time I'll be in a better position to capture all of the action. The best part is, I know there will be a next time...

Landing on your face (Matt) or splitting your elbow open (Ralph) isn't exactly fun. But with enough people and bikes you can have a lot of fun doing it.

I'm off this Friday and next Tuesday if anyone is interested...
