I am always trying new stuff, which means I'm always falling. So neck whiplash and hurt joints have been a part of life for the last 2 years. I'm starting to wonder if the people getting more seriously injured (broken bones/joints and actual tears like the ACL) are getting there because of riding speed, riding frequency or just bad luck.
I was really starting to think riding frequency might have a lot to do with it (both alot and a little). if you beat up your joints a few times a week and they can never fully heal, I can see how they end up getting blown out on a bad fall instead of just tweaked a little.I could also see that if your don't go too often and your inflexible and out of shape that could lead to a bad injury too (my 2 injuries I can probably attribute to this)
So then, how often were you guys riding when you had your serious injury?
