It's my estimation that sometimes riders just don't really come to terms with the danger they're in until it smacks them in the face, and then they can't handle it. Some riders internalize it and understand it before it happens, and those people are less phased when they spill. I spent every minute from day one of her training drilling her to understand just how much danger she's in. she knows every detail of every injury i've ever had. she's been with me in the hospital after i pulled a shifter lever out of my ankle. she knows what's up. after her crash she wasn't surprised or shaken, just sad and angry. that's the right way to be.
She was really pleased to read everybody's good will. Thanks guys!
