I broke my elbow and humourous in one crash on my bmx, needed suregery (2 plates and 13 screws), I broke my leg (tib/ fib) in mx, my foot (4 bones) mx, i dislocated my right shoulder, my hip, (my right leg was 6 inches longer than my left. I didnt have crutces with me so i put that leg on part of my bike and pushed myself around using my good leg), and that was from mx (i got landed on by apparently 9 different bikes. Spectators told me XD), and i have ;lacerated my spleen, i got punched for that one. But arthritis is gonna suck, aint it

 ohh ouch dude a hip injury would suuuck i seen one guy at on a trail hit a rock get bucked off over the bars and go into the trees, he broke his hip to ( and i htink his femur or something) but i never heard a guy yell so hard in my life hahh had to cut his pants off. i think that wouldbe one of the worst to break props dude. where abouts do yah race i race b class in atlantic canada but my passions fmx just started ramping only race for fun,cheers homie!

 This was already pod. Plus its not even his photography. The dust by the roders in the back is cool but the light infront of the front rider... Not so much
  • 1 0
 That's the best looking train i've ever seen,all because of a camera,nice one Neil Thompson,
you caught this shot to perfection,the light through the trees,riders focosed on the rocks and roots,of what loox like a pretty tricky section,props to the photag.

 If anyone wants to see some video footage from the track pictured, I have a little web series that I am making at the moment called The Premier State. Episode 2 is at the track pictured and it can be found here:
www.pinkbike.com/video/132069

Also, an interview in Episode 3 with the photographer of the picture, Neil Thompson, can be found here in Episode 3 at Mt Stromlo:

Enjoy, and leave some feedback. Smile
