Sorry to hear about your crash- but good to know you are on the mend....I have contemplated getting some upper body armor- especially something that protects the ribs (a lot of riders go down and hurt that specific area)...I do think that adventure riding jackets could do a better job in offering some padding over top of the ribs- rather than getting a full on motocross armor set which is bulky under a jacket- I tried the Leatt 5.5 upper body armor but it was just too restrictive and hot. Keep up the great videos and rides...it's so nice to see blue skies, warm temps and the greenery of Australia while here in British Columbia (Canada) my Rally sits in a garage because there is a foot of snow outside!!
After 9 days a cracked rib will have started to heal sooo it is posable that yours was broken 😬 i broke 2 ribs and that is what mine did 😉👌 good to hear you are on the mend and back riding mate 😁🥂
Sneezing's a 😂 I'm at the stage where I think I can do stuff but then get a friendly jab to remind me to ease up...yeh doc said not all cracks show in a stock x-ray so who knows...🍺
Wow, it was not dusty up the front, my bike was relatively clean.
Funny about that 😂
Hello, brilliant days ride; I am 'new' to riding on the dirt, I am tempted to join the group; I live in Kilburn.....
Thanks mate...19th and 27th Dec have two rides suited to newer riders on dirt...check out events on SAABR site.

Not sure why adventure jackets don't have rib/chest protection. A quick Google confirms this question has been asked many times. 👍

If there’s no footage, then it never happen…
You'd reckon at least a photo 👍
