Steve Peat Breaks Himself
- Thread starter Tenacious Doug
- Start date
Didn't he have the W/Cup clinched?
Yeah but I am pretty sure he will have wanted the rainbow jersey more badly than the WC overall.
this sucks...i hope he will be back fit fot the worlds !
oh man!!! 4 weeks is a push. A busted collar bones kind of different from other broken bones because even if you can deal with the pain you literally just cant pick up your bars.
. ohh yeh and even if it isnt healed all the way you know hes still going to ride or he better to back up the comment he said the other day ago.
Don't think he is hurt very badly... As he became european champion this weekend. (which shows that he is in good form and spirit)

The only thing is mingnar wasn't there with his honda bike and loyal following of small japanese mechanics...
I'm gonna check the battle out in Les Gets in a few weeks... it's looking mighty nice this year.

European championships were last weekend, where he won. Maxxis cup was this weekend, where he broke himself.
Bummer 
I am sitting out with a broken collarbone myseld but I guess if you get it glued, screwed and a plate put across it you could be back on the bike in like 1.5 weeks. Not that my Dr. offered me that option....

Marla Streb had her collarbone surgically cut so theres nothing there to break. Freaking hardcore.
Hardcore doesn't quite describe that..... I can't even find a smiley that describes that.... I can't even comprehend that.....Softy said:
please elaborate, is this even possible?Softy said:
How do you move your shoulder without a collar bone? Your collar bone is basically like a radius arm on a the front susp of a truck. Without it, wouldn't your shoulder just flop around in the socket?
It's in her book. She had to permanently prevent a break there again. So in order to get right back into racing with out letting it heal for a lifetime and never be 100% she had it sawed. Yes it is in print! " The life story of a gravity goddess".punkassean said:
holy **** there arent smilies or words alike to describe the hardcoreness of that. and some of the guys i ride with say that the luna chicks are pussies and are too slow. which they can bebut still. thats awsome. marla if your here i apologize for all the mean things i said about you that is hardcore. and peaty is gona kill greg. you just watch i would ride with a broken arm and broken legs to be that man with the little oupa lumpas following him. so peaty if your in the forum good luck and wipe his sell out face in the dirt.
Anyone who says the luna chix are slow is retarded. Go watch kathy pruitt at a national...she schooled MANY of the PRO MEN at mt snow...she is as hardcore as it comes.me89 said:
The guys you ride with need a reality check, like about how she can school them on 2 wheels...
Also, how the hell is Greg Minnaar a sellout? You should watch what you say man, Greg is about the nicest kid on the block.
The fact that he can school 99.99% of the people on the planet who ride bikes on any given day does NOT make him a sellout. Neither does actually making himself enough money to call riding bikes a carreer.
Lemme guess when a band you like gets a lucrative contract they have sold out and all of a sudden suck right?
