My wife and I ride alot in other states. She fairs pretty well being 1.) she like 100 lb girl, and 2.) She had cancer in her chest wall and had like 4 ribs removed and some muscles in her back, her collar bone ect. She can still rock on the quad.She never fell off till the last trip to Hatfield McCoy. We were coming down a hill which had a pretty steep incline and a switch back at the bottom. She was going nice and easy which is unusual for her , came around the switch back and just slowly rolled the bike on top of herself. Funny how slow it happened, but I'll tell ya what, When the bike came down she was under it and I heard some part of the bike crack her helmet. If she didn't have it on she wouldn't be here right now. And that was at like 1 mile an hour. Ya never know what can happen. The only thing I ever fell off of multiple times is that damn dirt bike in the garage ! Had it for one summer and already have busted my shoulder and leg, and freakin' lower back which is the one that really saucks. Gotta keep to the quads, but I'm not a quitter, so I'll get hurt again .....naver fails...
