As an aside, I've seen other jocks comment in the press that they prefer falling on it, versus dirt. Having fallen myself onto turf, sand, wood chips, and into fences - looks inviting enough to me

That someone spent time thinking of a theory that would suggest that polytrack would be more unsafe for riders to land on is troubling.
