Bad things on the trails

What is the worse thing that has happen to you all on the trails? THe worse thing to happen to me is to see a snake......."YUCK" they make my skin crawl....I remember one laying in the road once & DD is like just straddle it....."yeah right" so that it can jump into the Rhino with me......thankfully a friend of ours husband got a stick & moved it out of the way.

Worst thing that happened to me was getting thrown off my Kingquad and having all 600 pounds of it stomp me into the ground.

As far as snakes go. This is how we handle them in West Virginia.

I tasted it! I was the only woman there that would try it. The women in the pictures and some others were horrified!

I would be one of the horrified women, lol. I also don't like spiders or those worms that sometimes fall out of the trees & into the Rhino....

It was not that bad! It really did not have much flavor. It was bland. No seasonings to cook it with! LOL

Worst for me was flipping KingQuad backwards down a 100 yard
long hill. it flipped 17 time end over end. That kinda suxed....

That will get the ole blood pumping cause i was going with it....

Worst thing for me was flipping my King Quad and totally messing it up. I walked away without a scratch though, so at least I can be thankful for that. I also feel like that wreck would have killed me or left me in the hospital for a very long time.

those kingquads must flip easy or they just have bad riders









i guess they just have to much power and buck to much.

In my case, it was a bad rider.

You forgot to say, "It tasted like chicken" Worst thing, for me was watching my friend get rescued by windrocks emts after he fliped his atv on trail 9 and it landed on him breaking his ribs.

Oh crap, that would hurt like a mo-fo... A guy we work with went out with his buddy & they were drinking....long story short, they wrecked, & he almost died & stayed in the hospital for like a month.

King Quad will loft the front end very easily, but mostly it was a freak occurence. I had been up that bank several times. For some reason this particular time the King Quad decided to rear back like a stallion and that was all she wrote. It hung there stood straight up for a second or so, and I jumped off the back. Luckily for me, I am pretty athletic and agile because I landed on my feet even though it was about a 4-6' drop. I was not wasting any time getting out the way and when all 600+ pounds came crashing down, I am very happy to say I was not under it. It would have most likely crushed me with the force that thing landed. I went home the next day and was very thankful that I was not hurt in the least. I was upset about my bike for sure, but the machine can be fixed or replaced.

Worse thing for me was some old Coot trying to kiss me.

Never mind

Worse thing for me was Dawber and his banjo buddies let me try to kiss him!

Oh Hell, what'd I miss?

Speaking of snakes, I had a a huge black snake jump in the spokes of my Honda cr 80 while riding windrock which crossed me up and put me on the ground about 25 years ago. I hate snakes too.
