    Another wreck, but I am lucky...again

    Welp I was riding around in some mini-dunes we have here nearby my house...I've never explored them before so I was taking it easy over the top of one about 10 mph....well, little did i know on the other side there was a HUGE gap....well, not huge, but big enough to cause me to wreck. It was 6 feet wide, 1 1/2 foot deep, and 3 feet across. My front tire just plops right in, rear tires come over and I'm under the trike. The damage? I have a minor scrape on my elbow, my knees are a little F'd up, my thumb is a little sore(the bars pinned it when I landed) and I broke my flag. Absolutely nothing broke on the Tri-Z. This is the second wreck I've had where the Tri-Z landed upside down and neither me nor the trike has been seriously hurt. Am I a lucky mofo or what? Sheesh......I'm still shaking, it freaked me out man I wasn't expecting it at all......adios!
    Trikes:

    (2)1985 ATC70
    1985 Big Red 250

    I was riding some last night, going up one of my trails I haven't been on in a week or two. Got at the bottom of the hill, gas it to get my momentum to get up it. I'm getting close to the top, and about 10ft from it I see there is this BIG ass tree that fell across the trail at the top. I jammed my front brakes and luckily just barely got stopped, only bumped it alittle bit. Kinda shook me up some cause if I wouldn't have seen it or got stopped in time I Woulda went head on into it and got flipped over the bars. Anyways I just kinda rolled down the hill a little bit and got going again and pulled up the front end and jumped right over it.
