Topic: Just curious

[ProEdgeBiker]

Eventually noticed? Would a guy have ever created this thread?
Personally I always ask people if they need help...
Hey look on the bright side at least he didn't whistle at you to get off the trail.

[FACTORe]

he should have at least whistled

[Darrinw2001]

if he would have whistled, we would know for a FACT it was a roadie that lost his way and was trying to find the paved loop again. LOL!

The only person I ignore like that is Triple T, I just laugh as I ride by.

amazing that he didnt stop.... i always ask how some one is doing or if someone is off there bike in a crash i stop....just me though....

[Orion_134]

Heck, I was asking in the race on Sunday.

I think "most" men would have stopped, watched to see exactly what you were doing in the woods laying on top of your bike, then asked if you needed any help.
 
Glad you are ok.
 
Some of us only blast past downed Giant riders without checking to see if they are ok.
 
PS. Good to know there are woman riders doing the Panther trail as quite a few men ( Giant riders?) don'r ride that trail.

Yeah, I may have said before that I'm not the bravest rider.  I've just gotten so where I feel like I own Panther.  Except that one spot, I picked a bad line, decided to stop and just toppled over.  You know, right after that happened the sky darkened and the rain clouds gathered and very cold water descended.  Hmmmm

while its important to stay in the correct zone while training checking Heart Rate and talking to Scott via Bluetooth its easy to get tunnel vision. Zone 4/5 training gets a little crazy and the thoughts of dropping hammers are dancing around in my head. Guys dont mock the HRM!!! Regardless if i saw you laying on top of your bike I would have stopped and offered assistance. At last i was not riding Sunday and was at home beating my CrownVic with a air ratchet despite with these guys say .

I do agree if someone has crashed it is only polite to ask if they are ok.

later,

Jen,
maybe they thought you were one of those deep woods scammers?

The scam is : You get a pretty girl ( like Jen) on a bike miles from the parking lot to act like she is injured or has fallen. When a good samaritan stops to help... all of a sudden three guys in camo jump out of nowhere ....bonk you on the head and steal your bike, camelpack and trail map.

It happens all the time. Mostly in shopping malls right at closing time but it does happen.
