Does anyone know who he's riding for next year?
or any other info on him?
I'm really hoping he can continue where he left off before he got hurt.

Pre 2011 SX season: Josh Hill needs to gain some weight and get into shape.
He looks crazy skinny in that wheelchair; someone should loan him a hairless cat. He'd make a good super villain.
Josh is awesome but he picked a hell of a year to get hurt. Assuming he can get back into riding condition, I could definitely see him going to Hart and Huntington and having some awesome success.
Maybe if he can hit the SX series sometime in the middle.........like when they head east , and shows some good riding........maybe he can pick up something for the outdoor season in 2011? I think it should be possible.
I believe in him 100% , and I bet he'll come back strong when the time is right and is feeling good! He has the talent and speed to be pitting out of a big rig for sure.
Just for the record, Josh missed a couple ofraces at the end of last years MX season with the back injury. He sat the remaing rounds out after Millville. Those were the first races as a professional that he missed. So if you add those to the only raced he missed this year, which is X Games, he is still a far cry from Broc Hepler-ish.
Get your facts straight. It's this type of mentality that gets people going off on a tangent that has zero cedibility to it.
Josh will be back. Probably not for SX, but he will heal and come back strong. The kid needs all the support in the world right now.
BKoonts : just so you know , Josh has visited these boards quite often and reads whats going on every once in a while. I would think with his injury and having to sit at home....he's probably on here more than ever.
Remember , Josh is just a good kid.......And a really fast kid on a dirt scooter , but a kid just the same. You shouldn't slam on a kid , especially when he is down in the dumps from an injury. Try being a little more positive in situations like this........we all want to see him get healed up and get back on a bike!
He should take the time to heal up and rehab himself 100%, if that is even going to be possible. At best he would be seriously behind the 8-ball going into 2011.
Hill showed enough speed last year to make people remember. He should focus on 2012. Someone will take a chance on him.

on a lighter note Canard and Short were walking and talking with everyone despite the terrible weather and the kids had a blast.
That is exactly the reason Pastrana and Henry are loved so much by the fans. They will wait until every last fan gets a autograph.
Little things like that make such a difference in the fans eye. Bradshaw and Huffman did the same thing to me in 1993 when I was 12. I never cheered for them again and almost hated them from that point on. Bradshaw actually spit on a bunch of kids asking for his autograph right after the race. He was pissed cause he got smoked by Stanton and the MXKied.
One day no one will want his autograph but they will always want Henry's or Pastrana's. He should be proud someone wants his autograph!!
I've talked with him a few times, hes always been willing to take a minute.
Maybe you just caught him at a bad time.

I'm not hating on the guy, just being realistic about the extent of his injuries.
Prayers sent to JH75 that he fully recovers and returns racing as soon as he possibly can.
