Have not heard the cause but one of our team mates was behind her and went down as well. She got another concussion. Sounded like she was knocked out. I reached out to her and she says she’s okay. Crazy. I think I found someone that crashes more than me.
Some people I know who go through that much (or less) have quit riding. Not all of them, though.

I have heard that after 2 concussions it has been recommended that football players quit playing. Trying to cut down on CTE, I guess.
