Dude, what do you do with your Pred? You know I think I read somewhere that rolling them off a cliff isn't good for the frame...:confused:

When you get your Pred back together, head up here with Yanna and we'll go riding. Or maybe Mike (kid with the Blaster:rolleyes: ) and I will take a trip down there one weekend to go riding. Good luck with your frame issues...

Mapquest says about 130 miles from Hatfield, so about a good 2 and a half hours or so.

[TheFontMaster]

Dude that sucks, how hard did you land? And are you ok?

[QuadJunkies]

Holy Cow........:eek2:

[Fred55]

I didnt land any harder than normal, it was off a jump Ive done thousands of times before. Luckily I landed it and didnt wreck.

Looks like it had been working on it for a while and just finally went -- note the fatigue (missing paint/pc) and rust. Appears to be stress from the rear shock - bottomming forces.
