yesterday my family and i drove up to north carolina and we went mountain biking. the trail was like a foot and a half wide and really bumping. my sister wiped out 2x. and my dad 1x but me... 4 times
1. bike tire turned, i went flying off the bike onto the ground. a huge bump soon arose on my left arm and about 6 cuts on my right.
2. we were riding through the mud and my tire got stuck, the bike tipped over and i landed on the bruised arm.
3. this time a little more dramatic. i was riding in front of everyone and my sister screamed, i turned around, and my bike swerved and i went about 5 feet down the mountain. luckily i caught myself on a tree and my bike got stuck on a stump.
4. THIS WAS THE WORST!!!! i was just standing still, turned around and fell about 10-15 feet down the mountain but this time... THE BIKE CAME WITH ME! all i have to say is "THANK GOD FOR HELMETS" the bike hit my on the head and i was still rolling.. FUN... then my leg got stuck between the bike and the ground. (it was on my knee....) then a ramed into the bike with my chest and came to a stop. i was hystarical. i was so scared. my mom came running down.

no broken bones... YAYAYAYAYA... but a couple hundered scratches and bruises. it was so fun through.... i would highly reccommend it to any of you... no the falling part though. my advice: wear a helmet, keep you eyes looking forward, and don't worry about anyone but yourself. and HAVE FUN!!! i kno you probably think what freak would suggest something that almost killed her... well minus the falling it was an experience ill never forget. lol
