The young CDN. Brett McCormick, 2011 CDN. superbike champion, fell today on his Ducati in the rain and broke his 5th & 6th vertabrea. No neurolgical damage.
It was a rain soaked weekend in Assen with many top level riders falling.
Canada is behind you Brett. Get well soon.
Simoncelli apparently was asked if he was afraid of dying in a racing accident & he responded: "NO. You live more for 5 minutes going fast on a bike like that than other people do in all of their life."
Life's time is finite. Be honest & Let's Ride.
When he fell wasn't raining, he was off line and got cut to the edge of the pavement and lost the control of the bike finish on the gravel. Hopefully he won't miss out too many rounds. Gooo Kiddddd
Ma che cazzo hai detto!!!!!!!!!
I just read the team's news release. Never watched it.
Thanx for the update. It was about as close to a broken back and paralysis as it gets as I understand. Hope he is back riding soon.

Not wearing gear while riding is like unprotected sex. Sooner or later you're going to get a rash!
