Matti Lehikoinen Seriously Injured!

One of the best riders in the world but unfortunately one of the unluckiest as well!

News has come to hand that Matti Lehikoinen has had a serious crash at a downhill race in Norway. Initial reports suggest he has been cleared of brain damage but will require surgery for facial injuries. Matti is genuinely one of the nicest riders on the circuit but since finishing second overall in the 2007 World Cup series, he has been plagued by injuries that have hidden his true talent on a bike. More news as we get it, all the best Matti!
