For those of you who haven't seen this on my Facebook page...



I tripped over a parking bumper as I was leaving the pits in San Francisco. I was carrying my camera at the time and couldn't regain my footing. Wham, right on my forehead on some rough pavement.

The camera's safe, though.

I was thinking something along the lines of "...and that's how I saved those girl scouts from a pack of grizzly bear."

Ouch! A bit hard to tell, but there seems to be a crack there? You might need some sutures do reduce the scar formation...

Looks like it hurts, I hate concrete. Hope it heals up soon.
I'm assuming you'll ride injured next week, for your sponsors of course.

Dumb ass? Not so, at least you attempted to to take the hard trail by traversing Over parking lot obstacles, I call that Bad Ass. Any other wimp would take the easy way and avoid all possible treachery, those would be called Squids............................I should know.

That looks like it needs stiches. You should probably go to the hospital, unless of course you want a big scar there.

You should have said... "Well supercross fans are a tough breed but you should see what the other guy looked like"
