Hello guys, it’s been a while.
129 days ago my carrier took an serious detour, I’ve had a super hard chrash where I was forced with noway to go hitting another human on the track, I wasn’t even with my wheels on the ground before we had the impact. It send me into the ground and I was KO. For a long period of time, I was taking to hospital sleeping for further medical treatment. I wasn’t awake before 10h later, and they could tell me I’ve been lucky as hell. BUT.. my head took a really hard impact, 4th loose teeth, 20+ stitches in my mouth, a broken hand and several ribs was bend. Further investigation should show that my brain was in a huge trauma and lots of things was to become a problem for me. I’ve been in brain damage center for a several time now and it’s needed for me to be a part of for at least 6 months to recover and first then make a conclusion about my health.
So unfortunately that’s including the fact that I’m done racing. It’s been a pleasure, it’s been a wild ride for the past years but most of all 25 yers of racing. I’ve done all I ever dreamed off, and I’m super thanksfull for everybody who have been in my corner, teams, mechanics, supporters, brands, family and friends.
I’ve allways been going into this all or nothing and that’s the mentality who brought me to where I am today.
So, who is Mathias when he’s not racing dirt bikes ? The answer is short. I really don’t know. I’ve lived for this since I was 7 years old. I’ll be the best daddy to my girl she ever could dream of and then I want to get back to the strongest me. I’m in rehabilitation many hours doing the week, and it’s all or nothing leaving me completely exhausted for others. I’m still pretty heavily medicated to have less symptoms to deal with.
You probably won’t find many dirtbike posts in the future here, but thanks for ya all’s following thru the years.
I still haven’t decided or figured out what I can do sportsvice going forward.
