metalace2001 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Posted March 24, 2008 I was at my fathers house with the fam yesterday and I was showing off the shee, 3rd gear topped out i go 2 hit my front brakes nothing happens as i am headed 4 a telepole so i lock up the rear the shee goes sideways and slingshoots me in2 the ground shoulder 1st dislocating and possibly tearing the ac joint/ligament. As soon as i get pics of the xray i will post them, a bystanding nurse said the injury was impressive and that she has never seen a bigger gap between the 2 bones. I guess i need new front brakes, lol. Quote
