It only takes once

If you don't know who Mike Aitken is then watch the video below and see how he won the 2008 Toyota Challenge Dew Tour Stop in Salt Lake City, UT. Mikey is super technical and very smooth which he was rewarded and walked away with 1st place. Three weeks later he suffered a very serious injury and has made a long recovery and still has more to travel. Please watch this insiprational video and remember to always wear a helmet, It only takes once to leave you seriously injured or dead.
