I have done mostly XC and trail riding in the past but last year I got a Stumpjumper and started being a bit more bold. My wife booked a campsite near a mountain (Sunapee) with a bike park and lifts as I decided to give it a shot. The first three runs were great. I met a couple and ride with them and we kept pace with each other on the greens and blues. I made it down the Sidewinder trail fine the first time but on the second run I hit that last big corner a little too fast. I went into a banked turn too high, over corrected, and had a minor crash that resulted in a “non-displaced fracture” in my wrist.
Riding is done for a while but I can’t wait to get back after it once I’m healed and get some more experience.
