Dax Shepard is “in one piece” but in need of surgery after a motorcycle accident.

During a recent episode of the actor’s Armchair Expert podcast, the 45-year-old star revealed that he suffered multiple injuries while riding at a California racetrack. “I was passing six guys at Sonoma Raceway on a motorcycle and I was braking very, very hard, hard enough that the back wheel was off the ground for a good 100 yards,” Shepard shared. “I was totally at blame. I thought I would be able to slide in between, but someone turned in and I was already under full brake and I couldn’t go anywhere.”
