    True......*gears in head turning*

    I THINK it might be covered. I've seen Rocky take care of their bikes regardless of fault. We've already started the process. Just need to hear back. I'm gonna go by the shop on Monday and get everything submitted. But you're right. AL would've probably gone kaput as well.

    Thank you, I’m hoping so too.
    I’ve broken ribs in the past and you’re right, it’s the absolute worst injury especially when you laugh, cough or sneeze.

    Luckily this injury hasn’t been too bad pain wise. It’s mostly just uncomfortable. My sprained wrist actually hurts more

    I got the hiccups with 4 broken ribs a few years ago, and contemplated ending it after about 30 seconds

    I've broken a bike the same way. Get her fixed and it'll be good as new!

    Howdy folks! Checking into this thread for the first time. I've been a long time mountain biker and I've only owned my tacoma for a little over a month so far... I must say it is a better trail vehicle than my old Forester... For one, the truck can actually hold the weight of the rack, two bikes, and two people without sagging like crazy!

    Can't wait to take some longer bike trips with it!

    As for the bike, I'm rocking a custom-built hardtail steel 29er. 67* HT angle, 120mm travel and a 70.5* STA- to accommodate for my disproportionally long femurs. Being a tall guy with long legs, I could never get my body position right and put up with poor fit for years.

    Well, going custom was a game changer and I can ride for longer and with less discomfort than I ever had before!

    See you out on the trails some time!
