Default Another GoPro vid.. This time I got attacked by a tree.

Work warning for language

I'm loving the GoPro. hahaaa - watch in 720p.

Damn tree branch. - YouTube

Total damage - a broken RAM mount, another dent in my Q4 can, and a hole in the palm of my hand.

Good times!!!

hahahahah another nice one! That looked like it might have left a mark on your neck.
I watched the 3 min ride home too. Was that a Hawaiian shirt Friday? LOL When I got my gopro I made a magnet mount and went out in the snow and drove my truck sideways all over the neighborhood. Fun stuff.

Yah it felt great! hahaha.. Actually just glad myself or the bike didn't get hurt worse. I try to tell myself to keep my hands in when falling, but instinct takes over.

Dan - nice! I think I shall do a similar one this winter
Punk - the trails I have near my house are freakin amazing.. So yeah, it was worth it. hahaa

And I used my finger cable saw to take that branch down so it's all good

Ride on
