Has to be the ones when the front wheel washes out at high speed and you grind your elbows through the dirt.

That was from a TV show if I remember. They had this redneck idiot and tried to portray him as a serious jumper. This guy was obviously a total beginner and that was the result.

And yeah, he had some serious hospital time if I remember.

intresting enough i dont get hurt badly often

when i crash its not to bad but seems to hurt alot

LACR, swapped out and did a 180 somehow into a face of a jump, and another time i slid out (tedesco style on stone spray sandwhich) and crashed.. speaking of LACR im racing the christmas gp out there today

at I5 i came over some roller like 4th pinned on my 125 and hit a kicker, landed sideways, hand came off and faceplanted into the ground then my bike ran me over, then chillen on the side of the track some goon flew off the track and hit me.

when i broke both my legs i didnt even crash, overjumped a double of a triple running 7th in schoolboy at a llq earlier this year, cased, bounced, rode back to the truck. didnt fall:] hhaha

I think you are leading the contest, so farSick

It hurt me the most/longest when I was gassing it on a single-to-table and came up short into the face of the table. Bent both wrists back so far, holding on to the bars, they should have broken! Took forever to heal and even then I wore two velcro-wrap braces cause it hurt to ride months later. I was watching the guy next to me and thinking I can out-accelerate this guy! ooops!Shocked

Then it ALWAYS hurts to crack a rib or two, or one on each side of the old cage, at the same time!

Yeah, I have heard that. I was at the St. Louis drag strip, watching the National they held there, standing on my ice chest looking over the crowd along the fence, when Ricky Johnson dislocated his hip, right in front of me....awful!

Landing on someones bike they left in the middle of the track. Broken back and femur. Definitely my least favorite crashing technique.

Strange if your Dad was standing next to me!

Yes, I will be down to at least a couple, like Moberly(never been), Moberly(love it) and if Grain Valley(love it) gets one, as I heard Crutcher isn't the promoter any longer.

Say something when Spring gets closer!

Going through a double double section my bike blew up and i went over the bars and pile-drove into the landing of the second double. As I slide over it I got collected up by another bike and flipped though the air.
I was really dizzy and thought I was going to puke. I got to my knees and started to crawl off the track. I went the wrong way. I got a foot peg in the ass and got a huge gash in my right cheek.
They brought a truck down to haul me out. I hurt every were but I my but just felt wet so when the doc asked if I was alright I laughed and said nah I'm alright just rung my bell. But then I decided to say something about my butt.

This is where the real pain started!!!!

I got into the back of this short bus that a guy uses to haul his bikes because it had a bed in it. No one shut the door because it was hot. The Doc was able to stitch me up right there and man did it hurt. (its sensitive down there) The worst part was hearing everyone walk by and comment on my bloody ass sitting there for the world to see. It is a good laugh now but it was quite embarrassing
