"narrowly escapes injury". No she didnt, she WAS injured, more like "narrowly escaped death"
You'd think her sponsors would make her wear a frickin' helmet
Very lucky girl, get well soon etc

I don't quite understand why she appears to be wearing a skin suit?

silly move, she should know better

No helmet
If she had been wearing a helmet, it would be getting used as an example of a helmet "saving" someone's life.

I reckon it was a publicity stunt

You have to ask whether her mental faculties have been affected by previous blows to the head

I like the way it describes her as 'shropshire's downhill mountain bike champion' - as though she is the champion of shropshire

Strange,they don't even live in Shropshire or England for that matter...but hey it's only a minor detail,different country and all !

I agree with thomthumb!
BUT she should have been looking where she was going!Helmet is up to the individual.
When I had a similar crash as a young'un on me chopper- riding away from the corner shop with curly-wurly in mit- I wish had said "gnarley dude", instead of crying and running home to me mam!Posted 3 years ago # -
Are women not people?

I can't believe how bloody stupid she was!
Hope she gets better soon though.
