Glad he's going to be ok again.

I hope Ryno fully recovers, truly.

But to say he willed his way out of paralysis is a slap in the face to others who weren't as lucky. Did they not have will? The truth here, even for how shitty it is he got hit, he got lucky to not be permanently paralyzed.
My thoughts exactly!

Have to admire Ryno”s “core” tough guy persona but …I”m thinking this will be a case study for CTE syndrome when all is said & done….

Dunno. 45+ years on the street, 150,000+ miles, never down but for one 15 mph low side that was 100% my fault cause I rode my RD250 to work in the snow, like a dumbass. Which I was then, being all of 16.

Used to commute Sac to San Jose every other week, lane splitting and all down the 50, 80, 680. My formula: don't ride like a moran, never lose focus, ride like every cage wants to kill you, save the crazy sh!t for track days. It can be done. Course, I'm still riding street so maybe "when" just hasn't happened yet.

I hear you, but it's risky. It's not so much about the rider always, but more often the irresponsible drivers.

Are you a better rider than Nicky Hayden? I doubt it.

I think that we all have those acquaintances who have been ‘dead’ a couple of times in their life when they’ve had injuries.

“The paramedics said that I coded 3 times on the way to the hospital!”

There’s no doubting that Rino has suffered some major injuries over his lifetime, but when you listen to him he sounds just like those guys who always have the biggest, baddest, most death defying injuries that anyone has ever had in the history of mankind.

I’ve been hurt many times riding moto. Street by comparison is safer in my experience especially if you follow my rule 1. Everything on wheels is “risky”. I’m and average rider street or dirt. I try really hard to stay within my limits and not let adrenaline and speed influence my decision making. Being old helps there. Wink

Nicky was on a bicycle.

Heel up Ryno and learn from your mistakes.

Is a bicycle 2 wheels on a street? Ryno was on a motorcycle. Are all the vital street riders better than Ryno? Nope. It can happen to anyone regardless of how good you are.

I ride my dual sport on the street and I hate it. It's very dangerous in the city and suburbs. If you are out in the sticks not soo much...

Haha, I agree moto is more likely to cause an injury. But on the street, those injuries are more likely to result in death. I would rather crash in the dirt and take my chances instead of being run over or side swiped by some lady who's texting.

We all know the hazards of riding a bicycle vs a motorcycle on the street are similar but different. Yes I can happen to anyone.

Until a deer jumps out in front of you! I was gifted a streetbike last year and it just gives me the willies riding the thing at speeds over 40 regardless of where Im at.

I hear you...crazy dogs can be just as dangerous running out from driveways. Especially down in Baja.

It’s funny how you guys are pissed because Ryno talked shit on the injured rider and think karma is a bitch, in reality your doing the same thing just at a different individual and how does that make you any better then he was? We can all talk shit behind a screen,you guys ain’t any different then he was when he was talking shit. He hasent had the best of luck on two wheels lately,you can’t say he dosent love this sport,how many ex pros still have his passion for riding and racing and training? He’s a bit out there, but who fucking cares,don’t like his rants or what he has to say scroll on down and move on,pretty simple.

Two things:

1. The only common denominator between his accidents is himself and a two wheel vehicle

2. If you trash talk some guy getting hurt like a self-righteous dbag, don’t be surprised when people do the same to you

He wasnt even talking shit about the vet rider who died. It felt more like a PSA than anything, 'this shit can and does happen and you should do everything you can to be as safe as possible' then he goes on a rant about training.

He wasnt shitting on the guy who crashed, he was just using it as an opportunity to remind people that this sport is dangerous. At least that's what i got out of it.

when someone dies, there is such thing as timing etiquette. just because you can say something, does not mean you should.
