This is before the tiger attacked

tiger approaching!

What kind of bike do you have?

lets go ..

Coolioz!

Finish Line

This is before the tiger attacked by minianna.com.

Went Mountain Biking on Catalina. Took tons of pictures as you probably have guessed. When it was time to go back, I tried the shortcut route which was a steep downhill. Hit the break a little to hard, my bike went crazy :P
The result is like a tiger went crazy and torn my whole upper arm. :P

minianna.com says:

hahaha...
thanks everyone. My arm is fine.. It doesnt hurt, it just looks bad... And starting to itch....

@john: no it wasn't a note from me. there, I deleted the bigger note, so you can see. :)

@the one who put the bigger note: sorry i deleted the note.. Thanks for the note, but I have no intention of cropping it just so it fit "square circle" :)

@junketz: hmmm... good question...

@bertrand: lines= bertrand's fave... i know

Badison says:

Very nice pic, I was a little freaked out thinking the person in the photo lost their arm or something, but good to see from these comments it wasn't that bad for you lol
Posted 45 months ago. ( permalink )

Lan Bui says:

I can't believe you actually told us about your arm and not your camera!!! You know scratches on your arm will fix themselves, but your camera will stay broken... I was so worried (even though it is a Nikon) that the camera was hurt, not you, when you told your story.

Anyhow, I'm glad the camera only had a rough day and that you protected it fully while falling by wrapping your body around it as a protective barrier.

minianna.com says:

@badison: hahaha... I'm fine. Thanks for worrying about me, unlike this guy who commented right after you.

@Lan: very very funny.
