motofire Posted November 24, 2009 Report Share Posted November 24, 2009 Oh man...thats awful to hear. I wish him well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sectionone Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hope he makes a full recovery and is back on the pegs and pedals. He rides with a full face helmet on a motorcycle. I guess after this he will also on a bicycle. When he rode some European trials this year I read he got strange looks wearing a FF helmet but now after suffering two face injuries it makes wearing one a good idea for all.

steve fracy Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Please send along my best wishes on a speedy recovery! In the brief time I met him at the Youth Nationals in 08, he came accross as a very fine young man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 That has got to be difficult on many levels. For Eric, obviously he is in huge amounts of pain and will undergo surgery or surgeries to repair the damage. But also difficult for his parents to see their child injured, and siblings (?) to see their brother injured. I hope that he is able to come out of this alright.

terrormachine Posted November 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2009 THanks doug he is being operated on as im typing this down in la at childerens hospital, love eric or hate you never want to see this happen to any one but a kid whos already had facial reconstruction before its just not right he breaks his face twice. although he told his brother and i this the other day : " trials is dangerous " and alot people may not agree but its true so he knows its just part of the game. hes a tough kid hes motivated an i believe he will end up on top in the end.
