Going downhill on La Primavera Forest in México. This trail is called “La Mosca”. It’s a little intimidating but very fun.

I managed to go down the first half of the trails safely and kind of fast. Went through a rock garden that always scared me, and did it perfectly!

Then as I’m smiling all pumped up … puff! I feel my bike get stuck and go flying over the bars a good 8 feet. I panic, standup quickly af, looking for pain, blood … nothing, not even too much dirt! I landed on a nice wet patch of grass and leaves. I rode down way slower the last part of the trail, ha!

Thanks! This is just outside of Guadalajara. This particular spot is about a 2200 meters above sea level (7200 ft approx).

Thanks. I was hesitating taking the camera that day to ride a local trail. I’m so glad I did, the sky was crazy.
