I got injured at my last race at L-Cross.  I fractured my right clavicle.  I wanted to finish the race but the medic wouldn't let me.  I had to go to the hospital in Ocheechobee, Florida.  I live 2 and a half hours away.  My mom was with me.  They took x-rays and put me in a sling and told me to see an orthopaedic Monday.  The orthopaedic doctor said I needed surgery and it was scheduled for Thursday, June 21.  Good thing I had surgery, because a fragment of the clavicle bone was sitting nearand laying on top of my subclavian artery and lung.  The doctor put in a plate and 7 screws, which will stay in place.  I am off of racing for about 8-10 weeks, maybe more??  Sucks, but oh well it could be worse.  Brandon #418

Leaving today to go race L-Cross for the Florida Motocross Series.  I am in 3rd place overall in 250 C.

My RMZ 450 in still in the shop, so my parents bought me a 2006 RM 250 to race this weekend.  I needed a practice bike anyway.  I have been training with Shae Bentley for the last 2 weeks, I learned quite a lot and will lay it out on the track this weekend.  My goal is to place in the top 3 with no injuries!  Later,...Brandon #418

Sunday, I raced at Reddick, I got 3rd in the 1st moto and in the 2nd moto I crashed at the finish trying to do the double doubles to pass 2 guys.  It was a spectacular crash I'm told.  I got 6th overall on a borrowed bike - 2006 RM 250.  My bike is still in the shop, it needs $1350.00 worth of engine parts, ugh! 


Today, I getting lessons from Shae Bentley, my mom set it up, I'm pretty excited!
