Well I went to Preston and signed up to be a member.

I went along with a workmate who fancied a go.

He said I haven't been on a BMX since I was a kid!!!

He also said I have never been around a track before or gone over any jumps!!!

I said 'Take it easy and just get around the track.  Dont go full on and ride the jumps, don't jump 'em"

Anyway he started off Slow then sprinted over the small teeny speed jump and then just before he got to the first jump he collapsed in a heap.

I thought 'Crap' but he got up and rode up the first jump.  He stopped and turned around and came back to the start gate.

I asked him if he was alright which he said he was.

Then I PMSL. 

I said I thought I told you to take it easy and just plod around the track.

He said I didn't want to get shown up with all the people around so he went for it.

I said falling on the flat between two jumps right in front of the start gate with loads of people standing by is far more embarrassing than plodding around the track!!!

Anyway,  I got 3 laps out of it before he decided he wanted to go home.

Total Injuries :- 
Graze to shoulder with a good size groove in it (probably caused by stone)
Graze to ankle with a weird round shape to it?
Sprained wrist which he was whinging about on the way home (shouldn't be broken)

I really don't think he'll be racing OS this year or any year for that matter!!!

I was operating the gate at the time Moley, and I know it's cruel, but your mate's fall was truly hilarious. I was biting my lip trying not to laugh because I could tell it was his first time and he looked in pain..but like you say, being high-sided on the flat is an odd way to go down!
