I am a rider outside of Raleigh, NC and was hoping you might be able to share the story of a local pro and close friend who is currently fighting to regain a new kind of normalcy following a sustained major concussion.

Jordan Prince gained the moniker the “Prince of Pain” after one particular injury sustained at a contest where a failed flair-to-transfer landed flat-to-face – resulting in reconstructive surgery and permanent hardware.   This title also applies to the sheer number of concussions he has managed to walk away from, currently numbering in the dozens.  Some accidents had been worse than others, some with visible scarring, but those hidden beneath the surface have become the most troubling in recent weeks.

Not bad for a guy who's only real job was painting BMX frames at Cycle Craft in the early 90's. Nearly 30 years into his career, Brian is still out here living the dream.
