loganskinner Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 yeah there is a place around Lakeland, Florida where i live that is a decent trail riding place and some kid was on a brand new raptor and talking shit about how fast it was and how great of a rider he was, so he opened it up and slammed right into a tree, it killed him, but he was alive for about 15 minutes with his face smashed into the tree and cracked ribs sticking through the skin in his chest. he ended up dieing from loss of blood because the place is so far from any help. his helmet stuck into the trunk of the tree and the owners of the place asked the firefighters/first responders to leave the helmet in the tree as a sign to slow down and stay safe. im glad i wasnt there that day that would have kept me off the shee for a while. it has certainly showed me that the machine i ride may not have more brains than me, but it can certainly take all that i have, without even trying.
