T J Lavin: Biker in a critical condition
October 16th, 2010 - 7:56 pm ICT by Pen Men At WorkOctober 16, 2010 (Pen Men at Work): The BMX star biker TJ Lavin, who has been a popular biker in the Dew Tour Event in Las Vegas since a long time, was injured in a freak accident on Thursday, while taking part in the competition and is reportedly in a very critical condition and has been sent into a medically induced coma to give him some relief from the painful injuries.
The critical accident took place while Lavin was just about to maneuver the second lap of the dirt track, when he lost control, and couldn’t reach the pedals of the bicycle. Thus, he was flung to the ground with a sudden crash. Reportedly, he had lost his senses when his friends and other people reached him at the spot. He has been admitted to the Universal Medical Centre in Las Vegas.
The biker, who has been a popular host in the MTV’S reality show Challenge for the last ten seasons, was an avid lover of bikes. He is a Las Vegas native and has never drifted away from the original love of his biking abilities, inspite of getting immense love and popularity from the media hyped world.
However, it is a matter of extreme grief for the amazingly talented biker, who has suffered from a tremendous blow on his brain. His right wrist is almost smashed, and his ribs are broken.
