What is the average amount of time a rider can expect to go injury free? Obviously this chance of injury increases as time passes without being hurt. Some riders of course are more or less prone, but it seems this year many riders suffered serious injuries (as is common every year) and I’m curious if anyone has done the math.

With the number of laps turned in practice and races in the SX season and then the MX season in a given year, I imagine the chances of being injured in that scenario approaches 100% for most riders.
That's why Dungey's record is near-miraculous, same with RC. It's the biggest factor in champions vs. non-champions.
It's impossible for a corporation or government to love you or care about you.
