A teenager died after falling from his bike on a BMX track, the day
after his final A level exam.
James Ryan Helme-Sagar, 17, visited the track from his Dukinfield home
in June 2010.
He lost control on a jump and fell over his mountain bike’s
handlebars, suffering head injuries.

Many sports are dangerous, even carrying a brush cutting
saw in the woods.
The question is, why are you posting this? This has NOTHING
to do with mountain biking on hiking trails. BMX, like
motorcross on which it's modeled, uses prepared circuit
tracks with spectator areas. Even the bicycles used
are very different from mountain bikes.
