have i just joined the elite has i just got a very painful memory back.
after 20 years i just done a tail spin or tail wipe on my new skyway and i ova cooked it and the pedals took my shin out full bore.

4 wicked cuts with plenty of blood and 4 lumps to go with it,the bike stayed on its wheels thank fook.

god i feel alive -theres nothing like pedal to shin pain.

Shin pads are a good idea!!

especially if ya using Beartrap... remember them... shred ya shin wide open!!!

I love wearing shorts with Shin scars to show off that I'm still doing something that can end in pain and suffering!!!

Although the pin marks on the back of my calfs look more like round flea bites!!!
