I can't watch crash reels or even the Friday fails that the other website broadcasts because for the last couple years whenever I see someone crash in a video, I wince and feel it in the place where that poor avatar for my phantom pain took the hit. The google machine calls it acute empathy but I call it - "I know how that feels".
Don't get me wrong, I'm still riding but I've officially entered the phase of my riding life where I'm stoked when I don't hear a random ER doc say "4-8 weeks."
