1. Nearly broke my neck in 1996 at Berrimah Hill trying to ride a big berm, went off the top into a couple of trees about 2 metres above the ground. Broke the stem of the fork, went home with a smashed helmet and a bike in 2 pieces...riding above my ability! 2. Removed the skin from my right calf in 2000 riding off 'Skin graft rock' at Lee Pt. Needed skin graft operation and 1 week in hospital...riding above my ability! 3. Hit a tree coming down a big hill too fast at Adelaide River 2006. Smashed my right cheek, lucky not to lose my eye or break my neck...riding above my ability! |

| Favourite MTB Accessory: (Anything that makes MTB easier) |
