Default What's your worst ATV / Cycle injury???

Just curious what other's had for injury stories...


So far I've busted my right collar bone, broke my right wrist, tore off my left ear (was just hanging on by a little skin at the top) dislocated my shoulder and knee and cracked a rib-

slammed into a pile of rocks at 30mph with no helmet riding my rm250, hit a water heater some a$$hole hid in a trail while on my cr250, over shot a landing by 20', rolling end over end on my 400ex and slammed my leg into a pole hidden in tall grass while screwing through a field on a yz80...

So far- no serious injuries ever since I've switched to riding 4x4 atv's


I'll see if I can dig up some pics of when they sewed my ear back on

Lost a lot of skin, many bruises, coupe of burns, busted nose.

Bruised ego is the worst. Every notice somebody is always watching when you do something stupid?

Worst? Smacked the front rack on the wife's quad. Busted my chin open. If I would have had my tongue out, it would have been bitten off. Still has molar prints on the side 7 years later.

Most embarrassing? Hit a dip I didn't see coming and when the back end sprang up, shot me straight up and off the quad. Landed oddly, my butt hitting my own boot. Yep, I kicked my own ***, and broke it.

Lets see.... sprained both my ankles, left wrist, left elbow, left shoulder, right knee, many bruises and scratches, and all that was just from rolling my Prairie 360 down a hill in the woods.

I cracked some ribs when I flew off the quad and hit the ground. It only hurt when I breathed... or tried holding my breath.
