Wasn’t a crash, it was someone else’s negligence causing poor road conditions… I wasn’t speeding and wasn’t riding hard, I just wanted to get home to put on my leathers and ride at my ability/harder than most think is safe. Months of recovery and 2 years dealing with medical bill bullshit taught me a damn good lesson: All the years of pushing my body to the limits; BMX, MotoX, skiing, cars, bikes, etc… and getting away with it for that long was a gift. Mother fucking statistics and the laws of probability can and WILL catch up with you. > > I will still ride, just a whole lot more responsibly. Respect the machine, and then respect your body. Well if that person wasn’t negligent, it wouldn’t have happened, no?
