This used to be one of the most beautiful bikes I've ever seen.

Then the plonker crashed.

I don't think he broke much of it though.

well young man years ago if you broke your back then the chances were you ended up in a wheel chair, now with modern surgery and a better understanding a lot of the time it can be fixed.

i hope it turns out it can be fixed.

With any luck the spinal cord is undamaged and he just cracked the bone a bit.

i hope so.

we all know the risks but we still do what we do because we enjoy it, some you win some you loose. i have seen my fair share of friends and family in hospital and coffins due to bike crashes but if you were to say to them your going to die next week because you will get T boned by a car they would just shrug their shoulders and carry on regardless.

Mate if mine broke his back skiing.

6 months in a body cast and he was fine... Bet it'll ache when he gets older mind.
