Over the bar and ugly crash

eBatatas

One of my worst crashes which resulted in a lot of injuries.
After hitting a branch and pushing the front brake by reflex, I hit the ground with my face and teeth, then rolled to the bottom of the slope, finally hitting a small tree with my back.

Could have done with a met parachute... but would it have survived?!

is the bike ok

The bike hasn't got a scratch on it, and truly speaking, that's what matters the most!

The only thing I regret was not taking the camera mounted on the helmet...

At least the helmet saved you... Oh hang on...

We can replace most parts of our body, but not the head. I never ride without my lucky helmet

Lots of views on jukinvideo! Did you get any web cash?

If so will happily go and film myself crashing!

Speed would have been your friend there! But hey, at least the bike is ok

An interesting crash. More speed would have got you through it. Braking was the worst thing you could have done.
