Unlucky to crash but luck to survive without serious injury. I bet time went very slowly for Chad as he sailed through the air and wondered what was going to happen to him when he landed.  Wonder if the knee braces helped him avoid a broken leg?

lucky he landed on a down slope, would have broken him to flat land. Good for him he didnt - very lucky, very fit.

Chad's accident was potentially bad and he walked away from it. Stewart on the other hand I find his riding is dangerous and he is lucky he has not landed on someone and killed a fellow racer. Is it only me or do the rest of the spectators see he takes stupid risks, usually ending in a crash or a near miss. If I see it and I am not alone in this observation why have the governing body in the US not pulled Bubba into line.

I for one have gained a lot more respect for Chad with his recent actions. He has lifted his game 100+ % and has become a true proffesional. I wonder if RV OR RD would have got up and continued on? I'm cheering for him and hope he gets the cup at the end of the season. Bubba who?

Reed is 100% badass.  The guy is like a cat!

That is how you win titles.  He just gets back on and gathers as many points as possible.  Real lucky his bike was in good enough shape to continue!

then he gets back up and doubles the first jump only seconds after rejoining the track… most guys would have rolled the first jumps to make sure the bike was OK!!!

The Yanks will love this stuff… and all without any Bubba tears!!!

Reedy has shown all us real guts this season.
I hope he rides for Aussie in the De Nations this year with Metcalfe we might have a chance.

As I said is he riding past his limits or just dangerous.......
