Well, made it about 10 minutes in to my first hare scramble of the season, rainy day in a rocky shallow root pine forest. Went to jump over a series of rocks by launching off the first rock and it didn't end well. Rear tire spun sideways and I was along for the ride in to some trees. Face first, bounced off the first set which is where my left leg came in to contact with the tree, flew 15' in to the next tree that stopped me, nice big bruise on my upper right arm. Helmet is done, broke the bolt that screws my bark busters in to the end of my bars (they saved my hand for sure), bars are likely bent but that looks like the only damage to the bike.
Instant pain, but diagnosed myself laying on the ground that it was a dislocated knee (former army medic). Immediate pain relief once it was set in to place at the hospital.
So, once I'm back on the bike I want some knee guards. I have hook ups for CTI braces, but someone else suggested the DonJoy braces. I'm assuming I can get them covered through my insurance at work, people get all sorts of things approved.
And for content, here's a fun picture:
