damn that was touching…..
stephen murray….
damn
what i’m sayin
Dammit. Riders at a benifit jam for an injured rider riding without helmets… What does this say? Why would they choose to make this statement? How does their image affect the image of the sport as a whole??
shut up luke, let them ride how they want to ride
It’s great to see all the jams goin down out there for Mike. I have to say though, I, personally, don’t think it’s right to ride in a Jam to benefit a guy with a head injury when you’re not even willing to throw on a helmet. If anything these jams should promote helmets, not add to the myth that no one wears them. I think Mike would agree. I know it’s a personal choice, but think of all the people who’s lives you’d effect if you were to sustain a head injury that you never recovered from. Your friends and family would be devastated. It seems kind of selfish to me.
Anyway, stay strong Mikey and Steven, and please keep it safe out there, guys.
very touching to see murray like that, wishing a good friend good luck..damn i’m shocked.
Stephen’s words tugged on the heart strings.
I think the fact the riders weren’t wearing helmets is a bit of a non-issue. Bike riding is dangerous, even more so when you don’t wear a helmet. Everybody knows that. Every pro could wear a helmet but it wouldn’t make a kid on the street anymore likely to do the same; its an individual choice we all make and I don’t think the pros have to sacrifice that choice just because they are sponsored by bike companies.
That was a great thing they did get better mikey and stephen.
damn that was touching… hurt my heart. get better soon, both of you.
That was a really nice jam, and all the riders giving their word out to Mikey was insane. And Stephen Murray, I had shivers the whole time he was talking, to be there and watch those guys ride and to support some one who also had a bad accident and who is getting up from it, woah…seriously shook me.
Stephen is an inspiration to so many peopel!
牛B的FOX
Yeah get well soon Mikey, good vid and good cause.
One thing though, can anyone tell me what has happened to Robbie Morales, the last time I saw him he was in a Road Fools vid, he now looks like a totally different person! seriously his face looks really different????
Dont mix BMX and POLITICS !!!! BMX is 20″ wheels and crazy riders !!!!
definately a touching video.
especially with murray at the end.
geeze, u retards!!! chase do you not realize wat the jam is for?? your boy got hurt not wearing a helmet and you go do a demo for all the kids and dont wear your helmet. thats stupid. y care if some may not like you any more for wearing a helmet? better than ending up like mikey. im sure he would say the same thing.
mikeyy,
get your ass riding again.
i miss you. no homo.
wow, i cried watching stephen say that..
get well soon Mike.
Wear a fucking helmet.
aaron bostrom has the worlds biggest stutter keep it keep keep it keep keep keep it thanks man…..lol fag
Im with luke I know its personal choice but why would you go to a benifit jam for aitken and murray who both had life altering injuries and go and not wear a helmet? kinnda sad
The companies who sponsor these highly skilled professional BMX riders and are making a sizeable profit from their abilities should be paying for a health insurance plan for them. I am sure these companies CEO’s, etc. have health insurance. I have seen more than a few pro BMX riders have this same thing happen to them over the years and it is not right.
Damn really great vid and its great to see stephen murray out to all these things. inspiration.
Thanks Stephen for reminding me of true courage.
I’m glad to hear you are doing well Mikey…
I am glad both Stephen and Mike are doing well but seriously, wear a helmet. Do you like holding benefit jams for injured riders? Why not try and prevent them? Sure Murray was wearing a helmet and he broke his neck, a helmet isn’t going to save you from something like that, but it’s going to help a great deal and preventing a coma and or death, and if Mike decides there are more important things then riding I hope people can support his decision.
Glad to see mike is doing better, and Stephen…ur a true hero man, u definitely give definition to the word determination and dedication…get better and Stay Strong.
get well mikey! stephen keep holding up!
thanks !! very helpful post!
