i wish i did but i dont. I dont have a quad but one time when i was little i was riding on the back of my dads bike in those baby seats and going on a bike ride and i let my foot get too close to the wheel and my ankle got caught in the spokes. He had to cut them to get me out and i went to the hostpital.:p

You get some quad injuries soon, but until then i was learing how to walk and i slipped on a toy and my head went through the front window. the glass cut my nose and up under my left eye. still have a little scar on my nose. but I must have had a huge head when i was little to have broke the glass huh?

for my age, with all my injuries, my body will function like a 60yr old when im 30...

Broken arm (in 3 places, one on the elbow), fractured knee cap and foot, Numerous broken fingers(one right now), 10 stiches in chin, broken nose, 1 broke rib and 2 bruised, lots of bruised shin bones...maybe even more, hell if i know, lol:blah:

Broke both ankles (same time), fractured a plate in my elbow, wrist, disks in neck, all fingers, all knuckles, tailbone 3x, nose 3x..


Most of them were from riding, a few from doing other misc dumb things..:rolleyes:

Nothing. (and I don't ride like a ***, I ride hard.) the only thing that happened to me was not because of my own stupidity, my brothers of course. He is so retarded he didn't realize that going backwards down a paved road and turning the bars back and forth fast would make the quad flip over. It did a barrel roll and All my weight and his landed on my right wrist, nothing broke though. One time I was coming around a turn too quick clipped the side of a tree and launched off of it and that did a barrel roll as well. No injuries besides the scrapes on my helmet.:D

It was New Years Eve 1999... has it been that long already? :eek2: ... anyway, I was riding in this Christmas ride / poker run. A couple of my friends who think everytime you get on a quad, its a race... were leaving me and another friend of mine. Actually, I was being dusted until one of them crashed and I caught up to him. It was freezing cold outside but sunny. Anyway, we went one way... and it was good, but no tracks. We were some of the first ones out because the ground was frozen and the bikes were putting along! Anyway, we turned around and went the way the others went, which put me and the 300 with a short swing arm up this hill which was pretty steep and rutted. Due to my inexperience, the swingarm skid bottomed out and the quad flipped down the hill. I was okay, but the bars were bent. Well, we just had to go on right? :huh So, I did it again.... this time, I knew I was going to crash, but seemed to think that I had to just "do it". Dumb! I flipped again, this time the quad hit the side of my leg from the side. I got back on, hurt and continued on until the trail ran out and a guy broke thru the ice and just about froze to death. This time he was dumb. :huh Finally got back to the truck... coudn't hardly walk...... and eventually found out I had a fractured tibia.... right at the knee joint. 12 weeks in a brace, but luckily no surgery! :) sort of a smile anyway. It could have been worse. Today, I still feel pain from time to time and it does get sore. I'm sure the knee will have to be replaced some day. Until then, I'll pretty much do what I want to and ride a little smarter. That is probably the 5 minutes, in my life, that I wish I could "do over". ;)

few concussions
broken collar bone
total of over 100 stitches ( no joke)
skin graft


then tons of little things like cracked ribs, buised lungs, ect, ect.


I learned it the hard way, its not worth acting like your hot **** and going for every jump you see trying to get better. Because in the end you either just wanna quit riding, you pay out the *** for parts and you don't become as good of a rider because you sit out so much.

nothing bad from bikes or quads but broken toe and finger from skateboarding

[nky400]

scraped up back, bruised ribs, helmet is junk. rolled six times on top of me. could've been worse, a lot worse. rear rotor bent over the caliper, bent tie rods, bent axle. like i said it could've been worse, all of this stuff was fixable.

i'm sure a lot of people haven't been as lucky

I was hitting a stupid little jump and I leaned forward to much to land and hit the front tires off the landing. It snapped both the bones in my arm and I almost lost control of my hand. I can finally ride for the first time on saturday.:devil:

I have a fun filled life with no broken bones. Sprained my ankle once though:rolleyes: . But yesterday one of my friends was driving and got hit by a train. The driver was ok, only a few minor things. The passenger got airlifted to Minneapolis and he only had a concussion and 30 stitches on his forehead, (cause he went through the windshield but not ejected from the car). He should be home by now.

Good lesson in life: Always wear your seat belts, cause my friends didnt and they are luckly!!!! Another rule is never try to out run a train. They figured that he was going about 65 when he started to brake and there was brake skids of about 20 yards. so he hit the train with some impact.
