Yesterday my daughter was hit in the back by another rider. It was over top of a hill and she got stuck behind another kid that was stuck in the mud. The other guy come up the hill 3rd pinned, over the top and nothing he could do. He hit her square in the back and he flipped a few times.
She was flown to Kosair.
She is in ICU with a lacerated liver, internal bleeding & fractured wrist. She stabilizing and Doc says she doing better. No surgery right now.
The other guy was ambulated for a concussion.
Needless to say, it was a sucky first day back out riding.
So, many are getting back out as the weather breaks....be careful out there.
