Kevin, Pat and I cheated death yesterday at China Camp. Pat was forced off the trail by a group of novices and plummeted down the side of a mountain. He climbed up, unscathed, and chastised the group for their lack of trail ettiquette. Ettiquette schmettiquette was their reply. Pat rode like a possesed "muffin" after that until we could reconvene at the top of the mountain for a safety meeting. He ate some chocolate and became calm again. Later, after screaming down this hill to get to some singletrack, Kevin overcorrected on a steep hairy right turn across a bridge and fell 10 feet! It was quite dramatic and Pat caught it on digital camera. I took some pictures and photoshopped them together to show the depth of the ravine he fell into. I was pretty cautious after my two friends almost died, needless to say. Neither of them got badly hurt, so they both tried one more time to make it to the hospital by riding off the side of a sheer cliff! Jackasses! They both made it though, muffins! Check the pics.
