You gotta love alloy bar ends
« on: December 23, 2012, 06:36:23 PM »
5th time in 30 years to smash the same bloody tooth but today was the last time


I just sat through 4 hours of drilling and filing last week on my 2nd root canal on this bastard and 4 days later...







I was just doing a steamroller  >:( >:( >:(   I was having a bad riding day but thought i'd keep going and see if it got better...............It didn't

Damn, that sucks. I know what it's all about to have dental problems...  had throat cancer some years ago and the radiation treatments have destroyed my teeth to the point of it being a major issue with no end in sight. I recently had a front tooth break eating a friggin' fruit & grain bar! Need about 15 root canals and can't have any teeth pulled due to the risk of radio osteonecrosis. Lookin' at 20K in dental work with no insurance.

If I ever see a flat rider do a hop-to-wallride, my head would explode.

However serious you take it general public sees us as just dicking about on 'kids' bikes, some people could do to remember that and smile a little.
