My son started riding at age 5 and turned 14 last month. He rides a lot better and quicker than me. On Sonday he had a high speed crash ending up in hospital with concussion, a fractured rib and collar bone. Popping a wheelie over some ruts his front wheel connected a rock as he put it down, sending him over the handlebars.
He was wearing full ATGATT which helped.
It's the first time in 8 years that he had a big off and up to now I always hoped he won't have one. He is quick, but an intelligent rider choosing lines and corners very well and I think Sunday was just a case of not seeing the rock or bad timing.
Some rambling from my side knowing that he lives for riding and would not want it any differently. But I feel bad...
In ICU for observation for the concussion and hope he will be out by tomorrow or thursday.
