Well sports fans...I was more than excited for this one...especially after the rain but it's all gone a little wrong, so we are gonna have to sit this one out. Big love and see ya at the next one! #bksport
Good call on resting up and on getting the CT scan, head injuries are not any joke. I hit my head badly and looking back should have taken it easier the 48 hours or so afterwards, I got post concussion syndrome quite bad and it was not a fun time. started having panic attacks and had minor visual hallucinations seeing shapes in the dark while driving at night, brain fog
These ups and downs of Downhill racing are hard to deal with, track looks so hard and sliding like ice. God decision to rest, we are all with you anyway. ✌🏻🤟🏻🤙🏻
Glad you're ok! Head injuries are not to be messed with. I've had them and lost my sense of smell and taste because of them. Stay safe BK and see you at dyfi again soon 💪
Tough luck Bernard. It was scary when you didn't get up right away but glad you're ok. Wise choice not to race this weekend. Give your body time to heal. Best of luck to the team.
Mate I hope your doing better!! Thanks for bringing us some coverage. World Cups come round and here in Australia we long for your videos. Better than paying $35 a month to a streaming service to watch the broadcast. I hope the UCI a is giving teams and riders a cut from the profits they make selling the broadcast. If not, they bloody should be. Your putting yourself on the line to provide entertainment that they are selling. Thanks to you and other riders sharing your videos is the best!!! Thank You.
Sorry to see this Bernard. We always love to watch you race and will miss you this weekend. Good call on not racing though and glad you had a great helmet and have walked away from hitting your head on a Rock. Sending healing vibes from Queenstown NZ 🙌🚲
Well, if there were an advert for wearing a helmet then that was it! Incredible how the most innocent looking spill can cause so much damage and really highlights the risks you guys take to do these races. You already know all the stories about concussion so I don't need to add to that, so just take care and fuss over Ladaman! :)
Edbull needed to shave that stache and add the speed suit and he's surely got the aerodynamics to tame the black snake. So bummed to see you go down, almost looked like your helmet came off. Glad you're ok though. Next one!
Oh man🤕! Gutted for you, but its great that you are hangin´ her up for the weekend. Don´t wanna play around with concussion sympoms. You will be back way stronger💪
Rest up, dog. As per, head injuries are a twat. Had a big crash racing moto and couldn’t remember my name, the day of the week or where I was. Scary shit. All power to you, BK.
Dude, glad you're ok. Good call pulling the pin for this weekend. We're gonna need you to ride another day. Rest up, sit back, and enjoy the show with the rest of us.
So sorry BK! What a nightmare and SO frustrating for you I'm sure. I've only been concussed once (hockey stick to the face) and I rested one day before trying to play - I lasted 5 mins! I felt fine but I could tell I was a little slow reading what was happening and then a little slow reacting which would be catastrophic for you. Sorry mate!
Def best call Bernie. Black snake bites again, rest and recoup. Watching it back you went down soooooo quick no time to brace. You won’t be the last this weekend I’m sure on that track. Shows the value of a top helmet too, could have been much worse. You’ll be back and we will all be watching 👍
Sometimes you have to quit a ride so you can ride another day, this is unfortunately one of those. Hopefully no repercussions and you are fit and well and ready for the next one. Respect!
Oh boy that sucks! 😕 But most importantly: I hope there will be no further consequences from that head knock and you'll be back swinging off it for the next race! It's certainly better to sit this one out, rather than taking any risks. 🙌 Maybe, if you feel like it, you can give us some genuine trackside LSD, there is nobody else left who can do it 😅
Gutted man. Was looking out for you all afternoon, presumed something must have happened 😢. Gutted we won't see you in action! Best to rest and come back stronger!
....another 'gutted for you' but definitely the right call, just take it easy and give your head / brain time to recover, it's no joke coming back from concussion and it can't be rushed.
Glad your boy is relatively OK VDS is like Silverstone Monza Suzuka spa imola which are the classic tracks in F1 fast have a fierce reputation and take no prisoners if you make a mistake VDS is no exception like the F1 tracks she is a fan favorite and has a fierce reputation
I echo the last comment, your content is really bloody good, shame about the fall, from the vid it didnt look too bad, but obviously couldnt see that you clobbered your head. No point ignoring concussion, if you cant stand up, thats the big clue to give it a rest for a few days.
