Close Calls/Injuries? What's Your Story?

[CROSS]

I was reading some nasty stories on some close calls from bailed jumps and such, and thought I'd get some interesting stories from all you guys.

I haven't been riding long enough to have any myself. What are yours?

:ride:

I just looped out on a 75ft gap a few days ago. I was nervous about shorting it so I just pinned it ;) You know it's bad when your going over backwards and you can see the front tire out in front of the fender. :yikes: I bailed right at the end. Somehow, both my bike and I made it through uninjured, just a little sore!

Wow! you got extremely lucky. that could have been a lot of money in repairs... both yourself and the bike!
