As title says i was out green laning with my mate this morning it was quite slippery/muddy so we were taking fairly easy i was in front he was about four bike lengths behind anyway i checked my mirrors to see how he was getting on and he was no where to be seen so turned around to try and find him i got about 400 yards back down the trail/byway to see rolling about the floor holding his wrist when i got there you see it was clearly ****ed there was a big lump sticking up under his skin it was rank he had come round the corner his handle bar got cought in a wire fence and thrown him off the side anway its broken and he has got to have surgery on it and it just got me thinking of my own injurys that i have sustained on bikes over the years and they have all come when off road i have had 1 accident on the road but was unharmed off road its another story.
rm 80 = smashed thumb it now looks like a big toe rather than a thumb rm 250= broken leg-broken jaw-depressed skull fracture rm 125= fractured collerbone monstermoto pitbike= sprained knee ligaments-chipped a bone in my ankle
I should be getting a full license after christmas and want a big enduro bike so i will probably add to the above list of injurys
Even though i've had these injurys i will never give up bikes not unless i suffered something really bad where its no longer physicaly possible to ride safely.
Exhaust marks all the way up my legs from when I was a teen
The first time i rode a bike was a tomas moped when i was nine and i done the same thing i fell off and the bike was lying on my leg and burned me pretty bad.
16years old,not long on the road,showing off like a stupid 16 year old,clipped curb with back wheel then boom it like flicks up like a bull,throws me strait over th bars ,I land on me knee and rip my hole knee skin off down to bone it's on the pavement and all I care about is the bike lol
I had loads of crashes wen I was young big 1 broke my arm leg jaw all at once 4 years latter I got £400.000 insurance half mil nerly sum times crashing can be good
only come off my bike twice, ccm 125, first time had only been on the road couple times hit a patch of black ice and the bike ended up ontop of me hurt me leg but the bike was fine so all was good was more embarrassed than hurt then the second time had an arsebandit revving the tits off his clio sport behind me when it was lashing down with rain put the ****s up me so i leaned into a roundabout too much and the back end slid away, was on my way to a wedding party haha luckily my clothes were alright and just had a scuff on my jeans and a scrape on my exhaust guard and front plastic :P
bull**** u got 400 grand im sorry but thats a lie u dont even get close to that if u loose a leg in the army ive also been through compensation i got electricuted sufferd 3rd degree burns up my arms and now suffer from heart mumors and i was offerd 2000 i dont want to cause an argument proove it and ill upload a video of me eating toys flip flops
Tbf 2k is pretty bad, I had a sore neck where I was knocked of sitting in traffic. Basically had a grand in compensation forced on me lol.
Haven't had too many injuries though, got a few cuts and scares but that's mainly from me being a dick and not wearing enough gear. Locked the front because I wasn't looking where I was going and wiped my mate out, got a scar on my foot because I was wearing trainers like a bell end, always wear boots now. And whacked my foot so hard on a tree stump the other day thought I broke it lol, if I was wearing trainers that day probably would have lol. And had a pretty bad cut on my neck a while ago, caught a branch in the woods, looked like I'd been attacked by something out of a horror movie lol. That's about it really, got off lightly considering I'm always falling off or having cars trying to run me over lol.
means i can push harder with less consequences more than happy to look like a flid
defo agree. better to look like a flid (aka gay power ranger) than walk like one after you grind your limbs down to the bone. not broke a bone yet,did once high-side an rgv 250 on a roundabout and landed on the bonnet of a fiesta in the next lane. landed square on me coccyx and didn't walk for a fortnight i'm always coming off when off road,my record is 6 offs in 10 mins,really bad day
