- We had tons of reservations for Mothers Day so I was only able to go out for a short ride. We decided to hit Santiago Oaks since it's really close to the restaurant. I thought I was going to a chill place and ended up crashing twice.
The first crash happened on Hawk, both my tires slid out, I went to put my foot down and I ended up doing the splits. It pulled my hamstring pretty bad but I just kept riding. On the climb up to Chutes I went for a hard crank and I felt my hamstring get pulled again. I continued the ride but I was definitely riding cautious. On Waterfall I went OTB and when I jumped off the bike and when I landed on my feet, that impact shot pain into my ham strings again. I managed to pedal out but when I got to the restaurant the pain really kicked in. We were really busy for Mothers Day so I wasn't able to ice my hamstring until lunch rush was over.
I searched online to find ways to heal hamstring and found some exercises that really helped.
Great save. Crashing always sucks for confidence.
Yeah it was messing with my mind especially because my hamstring was throbbing
It’s cool you still ride your pedal bike. I just ordered my first ebike as more my group is getting them but I really hope to still use my pedal bike as I love it.
Yeah most people stop riding the pedal bike after getting an e bike but I do my best to still pedal when I can
I run the motor settings quite low, even on long climbs. Feels like an analog bike. Other e-bikers blow right on by. To each their own. But I cycle to Aliso and Laguna from my house and back.
@@dcpatters0 I’m sure I’ll like the uphill assist and be hard to resist using it lol but I like the handling of a regular bike. There’s a few places I know I’ll be using the ebike because they’re hellish climbs but others I better still be using the regular bike or I’ve gone soft
I was at Santiago Oaks last Saturday for the first time and had so much fun
Yes Santiago Oaks is a fun spot 👊
Pretty good save on that second spill, could of been worse, I probably would have gone over the bars.
Yeah once I felt my rear tire above my head I ejected. Another day I would've been fine but the impact when I landed shot pain through my hamstring
Man I felt those crashes in the pit of my stomach 😬
Yes just one of those days 😪
Hope that heals up quick. I went and did chutes like 8 times. Didn’t even do another trail. Need to go back
Chutes is a fun trail for sure 💯
Good bail 🤘🏻🫡
Thanks brotha 👊
Hope you are okay!
Are you sure that your front tire was not over inflated?
It could've been, the gauge was broken and all of us was trying to guess the psi. I'm definitely getting a new gauge
Hey Tommy are you half filipino or not?
@michaeljosephocampo8732 no I'm Vietnamese. Technically Im 12% Portuguese
I don’t know about you, but once I crash, it stays with me the entire ride.
Yeah it definitely messed me up
@@TommyHuynh I’ve been viewing your rides for quite awhile. Hope to catch up with you one day on the trails. Cheers Tommy.
@@dcpatters0 👊👊👊
Are you still doing OMAD? Great riding skills.
Yes I am, it's been 7 years and I plan to do it for the rest of my life 💪
@TommyHuynh that is amazing. Thank you for the response!

Yeah I heard there's a lot of good trails out there. I've never been it's hard for me to do road trips with the restaurant
