[QUOTE="MXDad, post: 140211, member: 18182"] This thread is really interesting to me. I am a bit surprised at how harshly people are judging Robert Pastrana. I am sure that outside of DRN, there would be (and are) an onslaught of Dr's, parents, employers, friends and onlookers who would accuse each and every one of us who rides, races or let our kids ride and race of how irresponsible, negligent and dangerous we are. I don't think that any of us, who are not intimately involved in this, know all the details of this situation. I am also confident that the Pastrana's, Suzuki and everyone else involved are evaluating extraordinary amounts of feedback regarding Travis' future decisions. When I read RP's letter, I actually found it to be a reasonable perspective about a very challenging balance when you are involved or have kids involved in a very dangerous sport. I have kids who ride and one who races and I wrestle constantly with the decision of whether or not to even let him continue racing. Granted, this circumstance with the repeated head injury changes the stakes, but without being the father of a 17 year old phenom, and the benefit of all the information and opinion I'm sure he's been give, I can't even imagine how I would react in the same circumstance. I too, would not lose one ounce of respect for Travis if he sits out one, more or all future races. I also hope that whatever decision the Pastrana's make, we fans will respect and support that decision. [/QUOTE]
