creekster, guys across country are now buckled over at their work desk with legs clenched together, thanks to you.

I recently took a friend of mine out mountain biking who just happens to be an eye surgeon. The trail we went on was not exactly a beginners trail, but there were some fairly technical spots.

So over the course of the ride he goes over his handlebars twice and he lays the bike down a total of 4 times. This is just weeks after his bro in law, who is a maxillofacial surgeon, broke both of his wrists while mountain biking in grand junction, CO.

A fairly skilled roadie, yes. Mountain biker, apparently not. The $3 million in equipment in his office says that he better stick to the pavement from now on.
