I downvoted because I don't like that news that he is perhaps injured.

The 557 part should clear up any uncertainty. By the way, that news sucks.

Holy shit.

I saw the paramedics and the chain link fence all knocked down when I came around but I didn't know it was Russel.

He must have hit hard, That fence was so effed up I thought somebody had driven thru it with their truck.

it was the big roller just before the long table top where everybody parks.

Get well soon KR!!

Don’t know where to start. Had a week booked to be out here in California riding and testing to get ready for this summer. Spent yesterday morning riding Pala, we had just found a good setting I was comfortable with and working into trying to pick up the pace. I lost the front-end just before this big roller and my clutch hand came off the bike and I whiskey throttled clear into the fence.

“I was unconscious until the ambulance arrived, was diagnosed with three broken ribs and a broken jaw (which is wired shut now). Thank you to everyone that has reached out and lended a hand yesterday! Also @BobbyD___@HinzFifty7 and @AnttiKallonen for going above and beyond for me the past 24hr. I’m not sure where this leaves me to be ready to race this summer. Definitely going to be tough to make it to the first couple of rounds. But dammit, this will only make it that much sweeter.“

Heal up Kailub! He's looking like Jaws from Moonraker in that last photo.

Broken jaw sucks. Just healed from that late this fall. Nutrition sucks during this .

the downvotes are getting stupid.

Who downvotes a report on an injured rider?

I THINK the downvotes should NOT be anonymous - Let us see who thinks what, the internet has enough faceless hate.
