In 2006 suffered severe bruising to the brain following a track crash in Workington forcing him to miss the rest of that season.

A crash during a pre season indoor meeting in Kiel Germany (2008) resulted in multiple injuries, including fractures to right ankle, both wrist, broken arm, shattered femur & internal injuries. He made a track return the following year.

Racing career seems to have come to an end during the 2015 season, while Captaining the Ipswich Witches. Broken ribs suffered on the opening night, loss off form & a highly reported falling out with team manager Phil Hilton resulted in him leaving the side halfway through the year. At the end of that season it was announced that Ritchie would be returning to the club, ironically as the new team manager.
