Why Men Who Are Nearly 40 Should Not Take Up Mountain Biking

Filed under: Family & Friends — DavidB @ 6:53 pm

Take a look at what happened when I decided to take up mountain biking. Looks like the movie star career has hit yet another snag.

Apparently my bike handling skills are not what they once were. It’s like my mind remembers how to do it, but my body just won’t take action!

Oh. And this is the after picture. If you look closely, you can see the ten stitches that the ER tech used to patch up my face. The before picture was just too gruesome to publish. Don’t worry. I’m fine. Feel sorry for Dana. She has to be seen with me in public.

  1. Ouch! I’ve been thinking about getting my bike out. Maybe I won’t.

  2. You know us. We want to see the before pictures.

  3. No electronic copy of the before pictures will ever be circulated on the intertubes. There’s women and children out there for gosh sakes! How bout this for an incentive – anyone who comes to visit us in our new cabin may see the before pictures.

    Is there such a a thing as an anti-incentive?

  4. Maybe boating was a better hobby for you!
