Reedy has had a bunch of bad ones at bad times... Shoulder, Shoulder, Shoulder, Shoulder...

Chad Reed has been injured quite a bit, but they don't seem to keep him out of races. He has made more consecutive SX starts than anyone, so I think he counts as one of the least inured.

What are you talking about!?!?!?!

He was tough enough to man up and ride... the question was most injured... dislocations, breaks and fractures are injuries, any way you cut it....

And if you think Larocco didn't get injured much you haven't paid much attn... Look it up!

That's likely cause Reedy has been going way way faster than MC ever did since he got to the states... You fall off when you go fast

And before you hate, those are MC's words, not mine...

RC and MC hardly ever had injuries, Tommy Searle hasn't had many injuries since his pro career started in 2006 either.

Mike Alessi? I'm a fan but can't remember his last full season indoors and out.

Just because you can't do it doesn't mean others can't...

most, Reynard. hand down. Close runner up, Townley, Henry, Pastrana.

Helper, you really cant put him on the worst list. He really hasnt gotten that beat up, its just he gets a concusion, and is out for a while and you think, hes always hurt, when in reality hes just not racing for 6-9 months due to 1 thing. Its a major 1 thing, but its not a he broke this, came back, then broke that, came back, tore this, came back ect. Its like he went down, gone for 6 months.

least hurt, MC hands down no contest. Close second, Reed, RC and DUNGEY. That kids hasnt missed anything yet has he?

(i want to clarify, when I say hurt, I thnk of races missed due to bones breaking, ligaments torn. All these guys race dinged up all the time including MC, CR, CR ect)

Least amount of races missed from injuries, MC and Reed without a doubt.
Most races missed, Townley and Hepler are the leaders of that pack

Gotta go with Hepler as the most injured.

I'll go with RC for the least injured over MC for the simple fact that he raced indoors and outdoors his entire career.

Wait, let me change that. Put Chad Reed in there as well.

RC took a foot peg to the leg in '99 early in the SX season and did not finish the season. Also sat out 2004 SX for knee.
