Quad bikes - the only vehicle which you can crash *and* run yourself over.

When is the last time your dirt bike climbed a hill of boulders and loose rocks? Try going down a creek that is nothing but football size rocks on your dirt bike...not. |

Yeah yeah. We left out helmets at home. Hadn't planned on the riding. Kept it slow for the most part, like 5-10 mph, then walking speed through the trees. I'm normally a safety nazi. Next time we'll have our helmets. |

You mastered "riding at the speed of stopped" and "falling down in river with iPhone in pocket." Here are your merit badges.

Helmets would have been the proper move. And yes, there was beer involved. Kids, don't do what Donnie Don't does. We were doing it the unsafe way. That said... I was sober enough and rode slow enough to feel comfortable with the danger level. |

It's called the sphere of acceptable risk and it is different for EVERYBODY based on your experience, skill, fitness, knowledge, and... sense of adventure. If something is too risky for you, it is outside your sphere of acceptable risk. If something is not too risky for you, like maybe riding slow with no helmet, then it is inside your sphere of acceptable risk. If you were operating inside your sphere then kickass - you had fun and didn't almost die |
