How is BT doing?

Sounds like he is questionable and still recovering from a head injury.

Looks like this was posted within the past couple weeks.

Props to BULMER for getting the scoop on BT.

And I think this was the video you mean...

Sounds like he will miss the first couple of GPs putting him out of title contention.... that will leave everyone no nearer to the AC v BT debates as when Ben comes back, he won't have the title to go for and just be able to win races.

BT v Desalle V AC will be awesome to watch this year though.

lol

that kid interviewing BT is starstruck!

Can't wait to see BT find his groove on the big Kawi, going to be a great year outdoors on both sides of the pond

Ha! no doubt that kid was starstruck. A Justin Bieber fan? (look at his left sleeve) WTF?


I hope BT does well, it was just last week that I forgave him for taking out Shorty in Lakewood.

Ben Townley was injured last Sunday, while practicing at a private training facility in his native New Zealand. The 2004 MX2 World Champion was unfortunate, as he broke his jaw in the crash and underwent surgery yesterday. His jaw has been successfully repaired and Ben will have to rest for a couple of weeks before coming back in Europe to enter his new challenge after racing successfully in the USA.

“I was completing my last 30 minutes moto for the day when I got cross rutted on one of the jumps and went down hard, hitting my jaw on the crossbar of the handlebars. On the positive side it was a clean break and doctors have gone in through the inside of my cheek and put a plate in. It’s going to be a bit awkward for the next few days but I’ve been through so much in the last few years I’m sure I’ll get over this one pretty quickly” said Townley who will be back in Europe a few weeks before the opening round of the FIM MX1 World championship in Sevlievo (Bulgaria) on April 10th

The Bieber thing is probably just a sarcastic joke. Probably a nickname he's been given.
