Got a little carried away during the BBQ?

That worked well.
Suddenly got the idea to take my feet of the pedals also.
Not a good idea.
Ah, well your not alone there. I've done that and suffered the consequences, crashing outside my old high school tends to damage ones ego.
I wouldn't recommend people trying out mountain bike riding though, few friends and I became regular faces at a nearby ER. I won't go through all the injuries but its one of the few times that my parents told me to find a safer hobby.
