This FRIDAY!!!

A lot of you know my story, some of you don't. I raced motocross all my life since I was 4. At the age of 20 in 2009, I was paralyzed when I was a passenger in a car accident. I broke my neck and became a C6/C7 level quadriplegic, forever changing my life and my family's, but never changing my love for moto! Every chance I get, I'll be out at the track. It sucks that I can't ride but watching and just being around it is the next best thing.

Anyways, these last 6 years I've been attending therapy non stop to hopefully one day get things working again and walking so ultimately I can ride again. I've had to stop going to Project Walk because I can't afford it. But I've come to the conclusion that if I had some of the therapy equipment at home, I could take everything I've learned from project walk and do it daily at home for free instead of paying by the hour and only 1 or 2 days a week. I put together this ride day in hopes of people coming together for a fun day while supporting me to get some therapy equipment. All proceeds go into a fund by HelpHOPELive, a non profit that holds the money for individuals to help pay non insured medical expenses, which makes contributions tax deductible.

If you'd like to check out my story please visit www.britswill2walk.com. I hope to see/meet some of you out there on Friday. If you'd like to help but can't make it out or live too far, you can donate through my website. Thank you for reading & supporting me even just through words on here, now & before on other posts. Vital is good people Smile

What time does it end? I work from 6-3:30, but could be there around 4:00 or so.

Ah track closes at 4 now since time change. We'll be there from 9 til 4 though probably. I wish Pala let me have a weekend but the tribe approved Nov 6 only which ended up being a Friday.

Thank you! I'll be back riding one day...even as soon as the grip in my hands are strong enough to hold on and twist a throttle, I'll duct tape myself to a bike if I have to haha. You guys are awesome, thanks for the encouragement!

Cancel that. Might be able to make it in the late afternoon, depending on how long I'm in the high desert. Hopefully see you there
