40Plus_922mx - That was 2002 and the rider landing on him was Danny Smith.
WORCSRacer - I'm not claiming magic or anything of the sort, rather Bonds' disappointment in missing rounds 2 and possibly 3. I guess I should have clarified that.
Saw this update posted at MT:
Bobby Bonds' season has had a slight set back due to an injury he received Saturday night while competing at Round #6 of the 2010 Monster Energy Supercross series. At Anaheim this past weekend, Bonds was doing this kicker section right before the triple, and on lap 3 or 4 of his heat race while running 10th, he hit the infamous neutral which catapulted him over the bars and into the face of the triple ahead, breaking his collarbone and ending his night early and most likely putting him out of Rounds 2 and 3 of the WORCS series.
Says Bonds: "This is something I definitely hate is when accidents happen over simple obstacles. I was having fun doing these supercross' on my off time from WORCS and making money at it as well. I'm just bummed for my sponsors and myself. I felt I had this year dialed in, and while Round #1 was a fluke with the fuel issue, I felt I had a decent shot to bounce back and remain consistent with the rest of the season. Now, with the collar bone, I might be out until at least Round 4 (Adelanto, Ca). Jason immediately got ahold of Dr. Cohen Sunday morning, an orthopedic surgeon out of Modesto, Ca with the help of Steve Achey and Marc Prince. I see him Tuesday morning and find out exactly what he wants to do. I just want to say again, how bummed I am about this, but at least its not a career ending or season threatening at this point. Like I said earlier this month, I'm more driven than ever and will be back soon. Thank you to my sponsors and everyone for your support and I look forward to seeing you out at the races."
Wish him a speedy recovery!
The Warthog Racing Academy is happy to give him a place to call home. Too bad the fates conspired against Bobby and 4 others in our little 13 rider team at A3.
Ouch!! was the operative word on Saturday night. Made me sick to my stomach, frankly. Thank god everyone will be OK but it will be a long recovery for our rising star Josh Clark; probably 6 months before he gets on a bike and continues his amazing journey from obscurity to stardom. Your destiny is never really known; it has to be revealed one day at a time . . .
Bobby wanted me to square everything up, he didn't get out of shape coming over the rockers before the triple, he hit neutral and had no where to go but forward.
Also- he left Dr. Cohen's today. No surgery, it was actually a fracture in only two spots with NO misalignment (overlapping). Center sternum to shoulder measured equal on both sides. This means he recommended no plate and screws and a full 3-4 weeks off the bike. This opts out for less chance of infection, hardware failure, hospitals, ect.. Bobby was happy to hear that and he said if all goes well, he should be back on the bike in 3-4 weeks and hopefully make Havasu Round 3 of the WORCS series.
Thanks for all the support on Vital of my rider, I appreciate it all.
