Wild Wally Palmer and Phil Smage Back for This Week’s Denver EnduroCross

Palmer
back in after big crash at Ontario and Phil back after months on
American’s Got Talent!

Irvine,
CA (September 29, 2011) – “Wild”
Wally Palmer had a frightening crash at the Ontario GEICO AMA
EnduroCross, presented by Lucas Oil event less than two weeks ago but
he will back for this weekend’s Denver round. Palmer took a trip
over the bars in the front of the pack during the start and was
subsequently run over by Geoff Aaron, which left Palmer briefly
knocked out and pretty beat up. Palmer wanted everybody to know “I
have had a lot of people asking if I am OK and I want everybody to
know that I will be back for Denver this weekend”. Cycle News has a
sequence of the accident here.

Another
rider that will be back in action in Denver is Phil Smage. Smage and
his brother Pat just spent several months in Hollywood competing on
the American’s
Got Talent
TV show and their Trials show got them very close to the finals and
the $1,000,000 prize on the line. Both of the Smage brothers have
been regular competitors at EnduroCross but had to miss the first
four rounds due to the TV filming and practice schedule. Phil said
the he will be focusing on the TrialsCross class since “he didn’t
have the fundage to get the big bike back together”, which shows
the wide gap in prize money between the winner and almost making it.

The
Denver EnduroCross course inside the National Western Complex arena
is coming together nicely and should provide for another great show
this Saturday, October 1^st.
Like all EnduroCross events, the pits are open to the public for free
all day and it is also free to watch the daytime qualifiers as the
riders battle to earn a spot in the night program. The Expert riders
ride practice and do a single lap against the clock to determine
their starting positions during the midafternoon so there is a lot of
action all day.
