@ArraDreaming omg tiny helmet hahaha love it! Yeah kids get all the best stuff, always so jealous when I go into Kmart and the adult section is basically greige (grey + beige, which = gross and boring imo) and then I look at the kids section with all its colours and cartoons and cool dinosaur outfits and just feel sad they'll never fit me 🤣
Well I'm glad you're still in one piece mate!! I've only biked down two mountains - one in Tassie with the fam (very tame, but very pretty), and the Death Road in Bolivia. IDK if you've seen this video before, but that's the road!
It was actually insane, the tour started in the snowy part of the mountains, we went down a busy, windy, icy road (and the cars did NOT slow down for us), then the track became dirt and very chunky loose gravel, and on one side was a sheer cliff face, the other side was a super steep drop off. Road was only about 1.5m wide at some points, and there were VANS driving down it!! Absolutely bonkers. The corners were so sharp, and if you went too fast and hit a chunk of gravel the wrong way, you'd have a super incredible view of the misty mountainous surrounds before plummeting to your death 🤣 The rainforest was sooo pretty though, we rode through waterfalls and down into jungle to finish off with a swim in a pool... which after starting out in the snow, was super weird! I was definitely one of the slowest in our group but I don't care, it was the first time I'd ever done something like that and I don't fancy the notion of needing some kind of serious surgery or something whilst staying in a developing country 😅 Good thing too, legit the very next day someone from my hostel came in with a broken arm, he said he was too busy looking at the pretty view and got distracted and nearly went over the cliff 🤣
Anyway that's my story haha
