Josh Hill: Back On A Bike
The injured Supercross star is back in action
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Josh Hill is back on a motorcycle.
Hill, the Dodge Motorsports/Hart and Huntington rider who suffered a shattered right femur, broken right pelvis, shattered right humerus and compartment syndrome in his left leg in a crash while preparing for the Speed & Style event at X Games in July of 2010, is hopeful of returning to racing January 7 at the season-opening Anaheim Supercross.
"It has been a long road back to riding well on the track," Hill, who has had at least 10 surgeries since the crash, said in a team release. "I had a few setbacks with pressure sores and with my ankle that forced me to get my Achilles and other tendons clipped and straightened out. That was 10 weeks ago. Mobility is a bit of an issue right now, but overall I feel great with my progress with just a few days of riding under my belt.
"My goal is to be ready to rock at Anaheim 1. I have put blood, sweat, and tears into my recovery and I will not settle for anything less than greatness on the track. I am incredibly excited for the 2012 season to start."
Team owner Carey Hart is also excited to see Hill back on a bike.
"I couldn't be happier to see Josh back on the Supercross track. It has been a rough couple years and I'm glad that he will be with us when he makes his return to A1."

career moves, pretty obvious that neither of those guys bailed doing any sketchy freestyle moves there bro!
I'm pretty sure nobody is thinking what hill did was smart..black sock wearing or not, he had a lot on the line and nothing really to gain.
STFU about the backflip, this is a "Josh is back riding and getting ready for the sx season" thread. It is supposed to be full of CHEER and non player haters. Again, STFU...
I wonder if it was dumb for TP to try all that crazy stuff he tried while racing.
Hell yeah, stoked to see him back riding.
