Good spills and fun last weekend in the Delta Watershed.
Good riding, with lots of trails and obstacles, along with a wicked Ravine with steep sides. A couple seconds of near freefall, then back up the other side for some air time as you go off an edge at the other side.

Pictures 2 and 3 are of other people biking in the park at the bottom of the ravine. All of these pictures are blurry because of the relatively high speeds in which the targets are moving. To fix this would probably take a lot of tinkering and practise with the camera for the right settings. Also, since this was under the cover of all the trees, lighting wasn't the best it could have been, which didn't allow us a quicker shutter speed for less blurriness.

Picture 4 is once again another biker in the park getting some nice air time at the lower side of the ravine. Picture 5 is of someone beginning the down side of the ravine. I personally think this guy is an idiot considering he has absolutely no safety gear.

Pictures 6 and 7 are of me after going off the edge on the lower end of the ravine. Kyle had some good timing with all of these pictures as we all screamed by pretty fast. For reference, since it is hard to tell, the wheels are at least a foot off the ground in picture 7. Max height reached was probably about 2 feet, while distance in the air was anywhere from 6 to 16 feet. I had some wipeouts here, including the wipeout which caused the most bleeding.
