Anyone know a good place to post jerseys for sale/auction? Is eBay the best option for things like that? Not everyone who looks for jerseys are vital members so just wondering if there are more options besides here, Instagram and Facebook, thanks for any info in advance.

 

also Huge thanks to Randy J & Randy R for sending some money to go towards my new wheelchair! I’ve sold my Ryan Dungey jersey before this was all posted here so in total I’m up to 891.21 towards the chair so far! Thaaaank you guys for supporting and thanks EZZA 95B for helping spread the word!

Thanks so much to sumdood (Bills Pool Service), Jasen P., and Donald O. for donating towards getting me a new wheelchair! I’m now at $1091.21 total raised.

Please make offers on the  jerseys guys! They are chillin in a storage box. they’d do much better with you guys possibly putting them on display or something Smile My Dungey one is currently on its way to a new owner.

Got it thank you so much. Slowly but surely getting there Smile amazed by everyone’s support already.

Currently up to $1289.71

Also applied for a grant that I was told about, that I might be able to get $1000 from, just need to see if they approve it. 

But please make offers on the jerseys ppl! I have some ppl interested in jerseys on Facebook too so if they sell, I’ll update this post by deleting the pics of ones that sell and posting about them selling. Thanks again everyone!

 Just in case you guys think I’m a fake or not really in a wheelchair. Motocross is a huge part of my life. I grew up racing in Hawaii since I was 4 years old. I got paralyzed when I was 20 but in a car accident, not from riding, in 2009. Been rolling on wheels since…here’s some pics I got with some of the big whips of MX Smile met a lot more riders over the years but here’s a few. Again, thanks everyone for the support!

Hey Britt ! Glad to hear you're getting closer.  I'm not going to pretend to know what you're going through, however I did spend a little over 6 months in a wheelchair during my femur/infection ordeal. That was long enough to know that there's tons of different wheelchairs available, and some are much better than others. I know this will be a huge part of your life and hope you're able to get the one you want, and not have to settle on one that's maybe not exactly what you want. Best of luck to you. I'm going to send kind of an oddball amount to get you on more of an even number Laughing   Again, best of luck to you ! Cool

Thank you so much for another donation!! And yes our chairs need to literally be custom built to fit us correctly or we risk getting pressure sores and stuff. Everyone’s body is different so what works for one doesn’t work for others. Just having the center of gravity off by an inch makes a big difference in being able to push the chair correctly. It’s crazy all the things a paralyzed person deals with then we have to literally fight for everything we need. I’ve been trying to get a chair through insurance since 2018 as that was my 5 year mark in my current chair and they just keep giving me runaround’s here in Hawaii. When I was in California I had to appeal their denials 2 times before they finally approved and that took over a year too. It’s tough but I’m glad there’s people out there willing to support me in times like this. Thanks again, very much appreciate the support!

And just want to say thanks to Tyler, Jared & Sumdood for donating. Total is currently at $4,165 with $1.335 left to pay it off. I know DDog might have a chair available but they already started building this other one so I’m committed as well as the grant money already was sent. Going to talk to him to see what they have, maybe a back up chair or one for the track and off-roading here in Hawaii or we’ll see…thanks everyone! Truly blown away with the support I’m receiving from the moto industry peeps
