Got this photo by Simon Watts coming up on the feeds here tonight and all I can say is, no thanks.
If anyone knows this rider, please let him know Vital wishes him healing vibes and hopes this sort of thing never happens again.
Got any more nasty crash photos you want to share? Hopefully let's avoid gross out medical photos and stick to just in the act beefing it photos.

Looks like he wasnt wearing the chin strap? If thats the case I hope not wearing it made him look extra cool and he got a ton of chicks that day before the crash.

Me, Crested Butte 2009. Clipped an aspen tree and darted into a rock garden. I like how you can see the photographer who took pic #2 in pic #1.

Wearing a Leatt and not buckling up your helmet seems like a pretty dangerous thing to do....
Crashes suck.
This isn't a crash, yet......but we all know what is coming
