You appear to be blinded by your roadie bias - I get it. It's not about "self-preservation" it's about progressing your skills, pushing envelopes and having more fun.

Sometimes you crash even when you're doing everything right (unless you just don't ride at all that day).

So yeah, your whole "If you're crashing you're doing something WRONG! Correct your errors and stop crashing." bit is silly.
Okay can we end this stupidity by stipulating that crashes on the road are wholly unrelated to crashes, offroad, and people arguing two different things and trying to be right are either confused or worse?

Some people try so hard to get into fights, and then act so outraged that people are fighting back. it would be comical if these were not the adults which make up modern society, where I have to live.
