Hello , i want to share some pics of what i encountered while riding my AT board in the late afternoon. I live in belgium and many roads suck big time. That’s why i went for pneumatics. I fell a few times due to bad pavement or garbage on the road.But this is probably the worst i’ve encountered since i ride my board. I was thinking to take the same road a while ago at night…luckily i never did it…
Please post your shitty or deadly road pics , i am probably not the only one to discover shit like that.
Wow even a cyclist could get effed up.by that, where is the grate how are there no warnings on that path that’s very unsafe I would report that to your city
indeed , that’s why i took the pics. I am amazed how such things are possible. Ii’ll report it asap as the road isn’t closed. It’s a shame because there are some kids living in the neigbourhood i saw a few of them playing a few 100m further .
damn, i didn’t saw that thread before. Where do you live?
I won’t ride my board anymore without protection that’s for sure. Cannot even imagine what would have happened riding at +45 kmph over those crappy roads with 97mm’s. Even with pneumatics it remains dangerous , you could break your esk8 or much worse…
I wan riding around my neighborhood a while ago, and there was a small hill which i had crossed a ton of times. There happened to be construction once, and they had dug a 4 inch deep trench right past the top of the hill. I hit this trench at around 18 mph, because I had no time to see it because of the positioning. I scraped up both elbows, and was pretty pissed after.
That sucks , why did they dug a deep trench and left it just like that? Luckily you weren’t going faster. Since my few accidents I don’t feel comfortable anymore without elbow or hand protection. I’ve never hurt my knees though., always the same bodyparts. Elbows, ,hands and shoulders. I also had a total blackout and was hearing some sort of continous beeping noise after i fell on my head. Was wearing a helmet but fell at 35-45kmh.
I think they were running piping or underground wires to some house. I guess the construction people had left for the day, and hadn’t put out any warning signs
