Nina Dobrev Says She Has a Mental Fear of Bicycles After Dirt Bike Accident
Nina Dobrev is opening up about her recovery process after her dirt bike accident last year.
The 36-year-old actress was hospitalized in May 2024 after being involved in an accident. She then had to have surgery on her ACL, meniscus and fractured knee the following month.
In a new interview, Nina noted she’s doing much better and shared she has a fear of even riding a bicycle now.

“I’m definitely getting there,” she told People. “I’m about 10 months into recovery. I’d say typically for someone to be a hundred percent after this kind of a procedure takes about a year. So I’m a few months away from being in the clear and being allowed to do things like snowboarding again. Right in time for summer.”
“I’m just anxious to just feel fully normal and not feel like there’s a mental fear. There’s a little bit of trepidation trying things again,” Nina added. “I haven’t been on a bicycle since the accident. The accident happened on a dirt bike, but I haven’t even been able to get on a bicycle since. Which I wouldn’t want to tackle soon.”
Back in October, Nina‘s Olympian beau Shaun White proposed and the two are set to get married!
Last weekend, Nina and Shaun braved the cold for the Moncler fashion show the French Alps.
