[Closed] Skewered by own bike

shouldn't have looked.......

Just made me reet queasy.

OOooo

I like his attitude - "It wont stop me getting back on my bike"!

that nearly happened to me, thankfully my Oro's popped the lever out (and I had bar end plugs)

Needs a puke spoiler warning!

I did give a warning!

There was a dude in the mudcowz video (very old now) who talks funny - reason being he fell off and landed on his bike with his bars going through his open mouth and out the back of his neck!

Am I the only one here who finds it funny?

No picture when I looked, but good on the kid for saying it won't stop him getting back on his bike!

My mate did that to his arm when he came off in the Alps a good few years ago. He broke a collarboane at the same time and had to be airlifted off the mountain.

"It wont stop me getting back on my bike"!

I imagine it will for a couple of days....

The most painful part was when the firemen cut one of the handlebars off the bike. It was still stuck in my leg at the time, so really hurt

Am I the only one thinking the Firefighters got the angle grinder out instead of the allen key?

ah the god old Sun blowing another accident out of all proportion again

Loving the comment about how you should see the injuries that Tony Hawk has had 😆

Did something similar when I was 10; a friend pulled me off my Raleigh Tomahawk (remember them?) when he caught a brake cable, and a bolt holding the seat took a large chunk out of my leg (at least the bike and I separated). The scar is still impressive thirty plus years on.

same happened to me,hit a car head on,.although it was handelbars that ripped my thigh to bits same depth as that,over a week in hospital and a 90degree scar on show now 😕

Class injury, glad he's still going to ride after that!

Ah, but Nina did it first 😉

[url= http://etnies.com/team/girl/nina-buitrago/ ][i]Nina's first few months of riding included some crashing, but the one crash no one has forgotten is her "brake lever incident." In all of her friends' years of bike riding, none of them had ever seen such a gnarly x-ray as the one that was taken after her brake lever somehow managed to inexplicably impale itself in her thigh against her femur, just missing her femoral artery. After eight hours and two hospitals later, it was only two short months and she was back on the bike. Proving her true commitment and love for riding, she still gets up from a crash with a smile.[/i][/url]

There are pics out there somewhere but I'm burgered if I can find them now 😕

I want some Sonic the Hedgehog pants

Guy riding on local trails here with bar-ends that pointed straight up and took a fall---punctured his stomach on the bar-end when he came down. Have seen him and a woman riding together for years and both had the bar-ends vertical to the bar---not sure what that was supposed to accomplish.

christ thats gonna smart in the morning

Remember a lad when younger who put both his thumbs in bar ends whilst riding and......
