Well today was pretty good fun, we suffered our first real accident. It wasn't too bad...actually kind of funny to see flail about (in retrospect). Our trailers are sort of top heavy and prone to falling over. Well, Zane started down a hill, but he was standing and petaling really hard to get going faster. His trailer fliped behind him and he was tossed up in the air. He survived with just a few scratches. but his back wheel got bent really bad and his trailer was damaged. we are still planning to go forward of course, but we might get delayed for a day while we wait for his tire/trailer to get fixed. Its all good. it means i get to spend more time with my dad, who i don't get to see very often.
We have been going over some very hill covered areas thus far. I just want to make sure we are ready to tackle the mountains in the desert. Having a wheel break on the road to Salt lake isn't so bad. If we run into the same problem in the desert... well things won't be so hot.
