I know it is not the kindest thing to say, but you should know that, for me at least, as someone who is starting to learn jumping and pushing the limits of my comfort zone with clearing gap jumps, your injury has been a cautionary tale that even the most experienced riders will have accidents and that consequences can scale with the level of danger. Because of your injury and numerous other anecdotes I have decided I am happy with never doing a big gap jump, simply because I know that even if I can clear it 90 percent of the time, the 10 percent is unacceptable if it means losing the ability to do what I love. I think it’s easy with social media to see the amazing things people are doing on bikes that was only attempted by pros 10 years ago and feel everyone is doing it. Once again I don’t write these comments to be mean as I am sorry for your injury and wish you well for your recovery and am glad you are making progress. I appreciate your updates both to hear that you are learning to love life again, but also to see how difficult coming back from such an injury can be. Best wishes.
