I don't know. I know a lot of people in their 50's and 60's that have never been in an accident. I don't think you can ride with the mentality that it's only a matter of when. You can't ride scared. You can ride respectfully. Knowing that it can happen but you'll do anything in your power to prevent it. I refuse to ride thinking about when it's going to happen to me. I ride with the mind set that as long as I'm defensive and do what I've been taught and what I've learned I'm putting myself in the best position to succeed every time out. Do not believe in those who have and those who will. That's a **** mentality spoken by people who have so they assume everyone else will too. My dad would kick my butt if he heard me riding with that state of mind and he raced and was damn good.
