Damn a cb made him think twice lol. I will be honest with 2 plates it held up but doesn't feel good riding. This time same shoulder broke greater humerus and torn from rotor cup. So now comes life time pain Dr said. Glad he gave the dream up comes only with pain
It wasn't so much the pain as it was his realization that he was years behind his peers and had no chance of catching up.
The pain helped him learn that lesson! Statistically speaking, he had no chance of turning pro. As good as he was, he didn't get into it until he was in his early teens. By then, everyone racing has been doing it for five or more years.
So, it was a good choice. The pain was just an extra motivator. Pain's a good motivator, really. If it hurts, don't do it! That's how we learn to do things like not touch the stove!
Have to agree pain is a good motivational way. I'm definitely going to try and use time to go get a certificate in my field of work
Certifications are all the rage now. That's probably a good thing. It's getting stupid sending everyone to a college. If anything, it has led to colleges turning into trade schools, defeating the purpose entirely.
