If you hit your head period you can die, it is always possible. Yes, I have heard that the more concussions/head trauma you have the more likely a more serious issue may arise. However, to stop riding because of that? Hell you could trip and hit your head and that could be the last straw. I understand about minimizing risk and taking precautions (ie wearing a helmet, not riding greenies, etc.) but to totally stop riding, I am honestly amazed. You couldn't pay me enough to not ride.
