"Few hours later we were having a session at a hip-jump. I crashed unfortunate at the ridicously roll-in of that hip. More or less a silly crash, but I ripped off my kidney, bruised my spleen, broke shoulder and rips, had a concussion, followed by the worst case-scenario of nearly 3 liters of blood flooding in my left lung. I allmost suffocated from my own blood. So I had emergency-surgeries and by many many other complications I spent one month in hospitals, pumped up with morphine, blood transfusions, drenages and so on. All good by now and stoked on my first "real" ride again this weekend, after this 24th of June!"

I believe, in general, good memories always outweight the bad ones.

Great photos and riding. Hope you feel better. I almost broke my femur on a wreck 6 weeks ago. Injuries suck, but at least we have great pics and memories!!

Did Fabien Barel do a section in a movie a few years back at that desert looking place?
