Eater weekend a few years back we were camping and ripping up a mates property near swan reach.
I was racing a mitsubishi lancer up the hill, and 2 of my mates were racing each other down the hill on their bikes.
Coming round the bend we didnt see each other and had a top gear, holding it pinned head on!
Fractured my wrist and did this to my knee.
My mate broke toes, ribs, and tore a big hole in his thigh

Yes, they were both very lucky lads with that accident !
No helmets or boots on either rider iirc ?

Unfortunately with dirt bikes comes pain. I've had 5 broken legs, broken ankle, displaced shoulder, punctured lung, broken ribs, broken hand, concussions x ... don't remember :faint:
Well worth it though !!!

I have got right now a fractured ankle 
the doc says I'm out for about 5 weeks but don't think its gonna take that long, it was eithe plaster or get them ok. Boot, I'm using moon boot just to have some freedom, really annoyed that I wasn't focusing for a split second and look what happened, I hurt myself more on my bmx then Moto

I came off my Dh bike harder then any fall on my on my motos.
Came over a decent sized double and if you ride Dh you would know what a decent sized double is.
But yea launched weird and landed in a large rut bike slid out and the bike and I went sliding for 10m before slamming into a tree.
If you have ever fell off at speed on lillydale toppings you will know how bad it is.
But yea got up had eaten a few of those energy gel things so I couldn't feel it at all but it was pretty insane. Walking back up to the top of the tracks was easy until a group of Asian tourists came that was interesting. Two lady's vomited(mind you you could see the bone in my knee pretty easy).
But yea had a large stick go into my thigh maybe 2inches. Shredded my knee. Shredded my elbows and got knocked out for a few mins while my mates where trying to get me back.
Interesting day.

My 3 or 4? broken ribs and punctured lung that happened 5 weeks ago on the Braaap are the only bones i've ever broken.
I don't have any pics though, i didn't even get a bruise.
But i can't wait till they heal up, it's been a bit painful fixing my Territory over the last couple of weeks
I've just replaced the rear caster arms and steering rack ends the other day, and still have the upper front control arm inner bush's to do tomorrow.

Yeah thats right. No helmet and a guts full of alcohol. (DO NOT RECOMMEND) My missus was sick as with the flu, and 7 months pregnant with our son and she did not want me to go.. karma got me that weekend.
grrrrr!
After sick and holiday pay ran out, I had to fix and sell my bike and everything else I owned of any value just to pay rent and bills while I was off work.
