Great photo, though.

Nope, won't catch me riding that thing that high. Unless, of course, I had a backup parachute. You actually rode this thing? You are a better woman than I! Great capture, btw!
Guest 15-Oct-2009 11:44
Great shot! I would be screaming if that were me.
Guest 15-Oct-2009 11:39
Wow! That's some ride and some vehicle ... for them, not for me! Great shot!
