loose corners and character

I went on a mountain biking retreat
Update from my season ending injury
In this video I talk about where I am at in the process of this injury. I also talk about the struggles I face as I have been injured a number of times. When you are laid up you seem to really struggle with depression. I deal with that issue.
Dirt Sermon: Life Challenge, Overcoming to Help Others Overcome
