I raced the bonus points race at Lamoni on 09/09/07 with a broken leg to help keep my lead for the championship.  I had a few look at my like I was absolutly Nuts and others applaud my efforts.  I don't think I am NUTS, I just go after my goals.  I had a few young boys approach me and say I am their hero.  I didn't do much on jumping, just a few doubles here and there.  I was the slowest guy out there, but still happy I was able to complete both motos and get 36 more points.  It sure felt great to get back on my bike and ride again!

Well, my season ended shortly due to breaking my right tibula and fibula in the woops section at The Farm MX.  It was my last race of the day, last lap, 20 feet before the checkered flag!  I had surgery on the 27th and had a rod put in.  I am currently in a walking cast and able to bend my leg at a 90 degree angle and put weight on it while walking with the help of crutches.  I am going to start using just one crutch and will then get the cast off on October 4th.  I am hoping to have my leg strong enough to start back racing in October to finish out the season.  I have been doing as much exercise possible daily to keep my body in shape and leg strong.  I am still going after the championship and hope my point lead is enough to do it. 


 

I am having trouble getting my current results to post.  It keeps changing the date to 7/15/06, not sure why. 


I raced the Farm MX in Indianola, IA on Aug 26th.  I had an overall finish of 4th place in the 125B class.
