I'm going to guess it's simply because of the speed of news spreading around the internet but it makes it seems like riders are really getting hurt a lot more now. They always are so I'm probably just exaggerating but we see rider after rider ending up being reported injured and luckily we have the ARF and the entire BMX community always ready to help out when someone is in need.

Josh was 360ing a spine and anybody who has ever ridden a spine knows how hard it is to dial in the landing, especially on a spin trick. He landed flat and took a bar end to the chest, breaking ribs and fracturing vertebrae.

He is currently in the hospital and recovering but is in good shape. Given the proper time to recover we know Josh will be back on his bike again.

March Forth is collaborating with Stephen Murray's Stay Strong brand for this shirt.

Cop one for Stephen Murray and wear it with pride, man...

medal-winning performance at the X-Games, his career lost momentum. As
the bills piled up, Murray sought to reverse his fortunes with a huge
