I couldn't do that the one time I arrived by ambulance still in my riding gear but had no issues with insurance.
Jeff, now I know this is real, I will be sending a little out to ya this weekend and if I can, some more in a couple weeks. We are strapped right now with my son, Lane, ( @LaneMariotti77 on IG ) just getting out of surgery yesterday himself.
I hope you heal fast bud.

Oh and please dont cut my gear off i would like to wear those again when i change lightbulbs and walk down the sidewalk
I would have guessed your family would give you the $2,000 to not have this out there. Hell, you must have easily $2G worth of used tires with 75% tread lying around.
I'm calling BS on this.
Insurance: "Do you do any 'extreme' sports?"
Rider: "No"
Insurance: "Cool. You'll be good with this coverage for this low rate then."
** Rider gets hurt & needs $50k+ in medical expenses **
Rider: "I fell riding my bicycle... at the park down the street"
Insurance: "Funny, the ambulance says it picked you up from Pala MX track... and you were wearing motocross gear".
Rider: "Oh"
Insurance: "You said here you don't participate in 'extreme' sports."
Rider: "Yeah... I..."
Insurance: "Even funnier... you're not covered for that sport... so.... we're out. Heal up!"
Is it going to happen that way, maybe / maybe not, but in this day in age where you can find out a shit ton about people and what they're doing via Facebook & Instagram I think it's pretty ignorant to think you're going to always be able to pull the fast on an insurance company. Eventually that shit will catch up to you and it won't be over something small.
I'm not sure insurance companies are scrutinizing a broken arm. Know what I mean. You know how many people take ambulance rides a day? Thousands I assume.
I agree with your scenario for sure. Just seems unlikely that level of scrutiny is given. You get hurt, you have insurance you go get fixed.
At any given time insurance companies will have hundreds if not thousands of lawsuits going on against them and these are likely 6 and 7 figure payouts at stake. This is where they spend resources scrutinizing things. Just doubt a lot of time is spent scrutinizing and ambulance ride.
This is why you don't need to offer up any more info then necessary. You got hurt. How? On a bike. That's pretty much the extent of information you need to volunteer or get asked.
Jeff, have you exhausted all other resources yet? (eg. Loan from family / friends - to be paid back! Loan from bank? Credit card? Sold your possessions?)
So, why not autograph and sell laser's?

The scenario above scares the crap out of me having a family here to be honest. We have decent insurance but if one of us has an accident or gets sick we are still screwed. Hopefully we can board a plane.
Having said that, these quotes are also stupid. Most guys that can barely qualify for the night show aren't making a living racing dirt bikes. They don't end the year with 50K in disposable income. Jeff doesn't have Mike Alessi money. He is a normal guy who tries to make some money by racing a dirt bike sometimes.
