Back riding in 9 weeks is not a life changing injury. 🙂 More of an inconvenience you will get over. Time heals and you forget. I can relate. Last fall riding I busted collar bone and shoulder injury clicking, fatigue, and pain lasted well into this year. Now over a year later shoulder feels fine and confidence is good but not 100%. Just have to get over fear of reinjury. Took a hard tumble recently and nothing broke so that was good. I suspect by spring I’ll have forgotten all about this. 🙂

Mountain biking is good for you but not your wallet. Just ride cross country. Stay safe.

You don’t need to decide these things today. Just be patient, see what happens and how you feel! There’s lots of cycling that doesn’t involve sending huge gaps ! If you like challenges, you could do fitness goals, or distance goals, or how many days you ride in a month or a year or… well you get the point 🙂

I’ve thought about quitting too after injuries but two things brought back the joy and confidence after the worst crashes. The first one was music. I played a good fast rock song that I love while going downhill and suddenly it was like, Oh yeah…. this is awesome. I forgot all about being scared and the excitement and confidence returned. It was a while before I was 100%, but that was the beginning. The second time after injury I rode down a super fun easy flow trail behind friends. They were flying and soon I was too. It was so fun and I found myself anxious for that feeling again. Then the progression started and I was back to myself in no time. Be patient and don’t listen to people who tell you not to send it. Just wait until you’re comfortable and you have your confidence back. We all crash, but the riders who truly love it will always come back to it no matter what.

“Know when to whoa and when to go.” someone once said to me. Lol. Fractured my elbow, broke a couple ribs and dinged my knee real good not long after your crash. Now is the time to exercise restraint and take it sloooow. Another fall on your wrist no matter how minor could be catastrophic! As boring as it sounds, you may consider spinning some miles on the road to regain some cardio and stamina in your legs lungs and wrist……..and tail bone. ☺️

It’s not if but when. Riding from 86′ on, have been in many, many crashes. It is a passion with no cops around for this BM. Just being outdoors hearing no cars, most no people and seeing wildlife flourish. Keep your passion, oh and my GF is from Japan and she loves to watch you.

Suspect that being subjugated by fear is simply not in your nature from what I have seen. Stuff breaks, it heals, the fire soon returns, that’s life.

As an older rider, I can tell you that you can still enjoy mtb even if you can’t do what you use to do. Try to just mellow out, enjoy and appreciate your surroundings. If you can tone down the aggression, it would be safer. And for God’s sake…try to control the overthinking. Love your work, by the way.

Give yourself time.
Just take it easy untill you feel comfortable. No need to rush.

The thing with “Mountain biking” is, everything is about progression. Once you get past that and ride casually it is absolutely for you. Just have fun. You have nothing to prove to anyone. Mountain biking is soul cleansing. Don’t give up. You got this Yuka.

Your videos are so thoughtful and encouraging! I’m sure we all go through the apprehension after every crash. The last one had me in the hospital for 12 days with broken ribs and a punctured lung, but I knew I would be back on the bike as soon as I could because I love mountain biking so much. We always talk in our group about knowing that we will have a serious crash once in a while, so we have to be patient and wait to heal. Maybe I have started going a little slower and not jumping as high as I get older, but I’m still riding.

Hit the gym. Strengthen that upper body so you can hold on better. Whenever I see a ladies MTBing, and they fall, it’s usually because their upper body strength is low and couldn’t hold on to keep the bike straight, or get compressed against the bars (push up position) and did not have the strength to push against. But one thing I have learned after 15 years of biking is that mountain biking is infuriating at the best of times, but you gotta hold out for that day when everything is perfect. Like when your feeling fit and confident, the bike is running mint, your with a great group, the weather is perfect and the dirt is all time, it’s only then you realize that this is the best sport in the world, and for so many reasons.

Shattered my elbow mountain biking just over a year and a half ago. Still trying to work up the courage to head back up the trails. Always on my mind that another hit on that elbow could leave me with no mobility in my arm.

Seriously, give yourself time. More and more time and really take it easy on yourself. Be compassionate to you body and have empathy for your mind. You will find you center on the bike again, if you focus on not being in any rush.
Side note.
I dont like the risk associated with high speed so i keep it low speed technical stuff. I do a lot a of trials tricks on my mtb and really focus on bike control.

I agree with everything you said here. Went and am going through a similar experience now.

Yuka – There is a pretty gnarly double black trail here in Phoenix now that I rode a few times, but after a close call, I don’t ride it anymore, even when my friends ask me to go ride it with them. Not worth it! There are plenty of other fun trails to ride where they’re still challenging but way less risky. You probably saw Paul’s video about this, and I said the same thing to him – ride whatever you want, don’t ever feel pressured, and if you do, find some new riding buddies. Mountain biking is supposed to be fun, not scary.

Glad the recovery is going well, i had a big off early last year which put me in hospital for 3 weeks with a broken pelvis and internal bleeding. it took me the rest of the summer to recover and get back on my bike, then slowly got my confidence back, but in your early fifties you realise that maybe somethings i should be be attempting. so have accepted to know my limits and now have decided to stay within them, and i am still having fun.
Jumps was the issue with the crash and also where i live there are not so many good ones to progress on, and i only get to go to a big bike park once a year, so thats also not enough time to progress.
i have been watching your videos with awe seeing how you conquer all these big feature’s and i guess this is also a little addiction trying to go one bigger and also good content for your channel.
i have no doubt little by little you will get back to your former self, but maybe dont try to hard with some of the bigger new feature’s if your only at these place’s for a few days at a time, stay safe on what you know. or as someone else has said in this comments section, get some jump training and see if that helps, i know that what i should probably do the next time i am at a bike park.
