and the back of my neck says its not a tragedy to die doing soething you love. the story behing it is i used to race motocross and during a race one day i came up short on a jump and hit the face of the landing it was like flying into a brick wall. i hit the ground hard enough with my head that it cracked my helmet knocked me out almost colapst a lung and for a few mins i could not feel my legs. i was scared to death. but once i recovered i was back on the track. the only thing that could stop me was when my wife said she was pregnant. and i said ok i have to slow down for my family. and when i was in that crash yeserday all i could think about was seeing my little girls giggling face again and getting to hold my wonderul wife. and thank god they were not with me.
I hate coming up short on landing! I had a friend about 5 years ago I was riding with and he came up short and the spokes broke off the front tire and went into his knee.
