said in his interview from washougal that he has been doing therapy and TRAINING and hopes to be released to ride this tuesday.. wonder if he is going to jump into the remaining rounds to get picked for MXON?

It didn't seem like it when I talked to him at Washougal.

I was wondering about this too after DeCoster said he may be in the running for the team if he came back and did well the last few races.

He's not cleared to ride yet.... you think he'll be ready to race in 3 weeks?

I saw him at washougal on friday in the pits playing catch with the team truck driver. Maybe it was just me but he looked to be favoring his leg still

my understanding..... he is training not riding yet. RV2 will probably be racing the MEC.

he should be "Granfathered" in the MXDN's I'm sure he will be in good enough shape by them.

He "could" be riding this week...he's commented on the fact that he's "ahead of schedule" and he's VERY up-beat about his health...also...let's not forget this injury/rehab has given him more time off of his foot/ankle and that's gotta be nice, too! (It seems we all forget just how serious an injury that was/makes this knee look like "Business as Usual")

So...let's use Wed's 7/25 as a start date...and realize we're talking about RV1...give it 6 weeks and you're looking at September 3...with Lake Elsinore happening on September 8...so...well...

Have you watched HIM watching RD and MA...hmmmmmm?

Have you seen him and his over-all conditioning...hmmmmmm?

I'm jus' sayin'...

Playing catch huh? Sounds like he was taking his first pitch duties at the Angels game pretty seriously.

www.vitalmx.com Bookmark it. Visit it once a day. Your bike will gain several horsepower, you'll start pulling chicks like you wouldn't believe, and you'll have shinier coat and teeth.

The worst part about coming back from an ACL replacement using a donor part. Is that most times you feel better, way before the time that it takes for the new part to mend with the bones.

Look at his history, especially after his foot...

He got back on it and was railing in NO TIME.

With his knee...he's been training and maintaining like he never got injured...so...call me high...fine...

If...if...he does show up early...?

That's interesting. I've heard of a lot of people re-injuring their knees after doing this. A running back for u-dub named deontae cooper is on his second time getting his acl replaced and still hasn't got the chance to play after 3 years of being signed. Kid is a phenominal rb if you look him up on youtube. Kind of sad, don't think he's ready to go this year either.

Motocross is a different deal I suppose though.

when my coat starts to look shiny it's time for a bath. I recommended flea soap as well

i was back from ACL surgery in alittle under 5 months and I'm old and outta shape. but i busted my ass doing rehab.
i set up some drums around my exercise bike and rode for hrs. because i was concentrating on what my hands were doing it took my mind off pedaling. worked out great. 3 scope later it's finally about 90%
