Photo of the Day: Oops

There are times when you’re better off letting go of your bike than you are holding onto it. The rider was at least 10 feet off the ground during a jumping contest at Mammoth Mountain. It’s possible that the bike slipped out of his hands, or maybe he was throwing it away. In either case, at this point, we’re pretty sure he wanted to land as far away from his bike as possible.
