One thing you’re likely to notice in Crash Cart is my desire to make Motocross a safer sport. I fully understand that we all take the risk when we toss our leg over a motorcycle of any kind, but there are plenty of things in our power that we can control, too.
There seems to be a shakeup in the world of motocross apparel and protection devices on a daily basis. Remember neck braces? How about those shoelaces that people would wear on their chest and shoulders? (I still don’t know the purpose of those things…). I have seen some wild snake oil products in the pits over the years. Now, it seems that knee braces are making a shift in popularity.
Falling is part of the sport of Motocross. It’s not a matter of if you hit the dirt, it’s when. And some falls are harder on us than others. For many reasons, hitting our head is often misunderstood and even blown off as “not a big deal.” We talk about “ringing our bell” and “taking a dirt nap” all while getting back on our bikes for more track time or to line up for the next moto.
