When you test what you write about some days don't go so well. Saturday at REM Jody took a spill on the National track and broke his arm. He spent more than 10 hrs at one hospital and was not seen so he went to another and was cast. No news if surgery needed. Hoping for a good heal and back to riding in no time for Jody. Wishes sent.

Sean Collier had a get off on Saturday as well and fractured his C1. Saw he had feeling and all that, just a fractures C1 and a concussion. Sounded like a rough day at Glen Helen
And of course hoping for a speedy recovery the the previously mentioned Moto Bros!
I had two ER surgeons that saw my Talus injury and said it would need to be fused, the third that I requested took a shot on it and I was walking four months later. It took nearly 16 months for the swelling to fully go-away and I know have about 85-90% range of motion.
Best wish's on a full and speedy recovery to Jody

I think Jody's gotta be about 112 years old; so, he's a Bad Ass that still rides.
I never forgot this from Jody.."
At world vets one year at Glen Helen, I asked him for some tips on the track because it was so rough...ya know.....local knowledge.....he said,
"Try and miss the bumps".

I can say that between Jody and Rick Sieman, the mid 70s to early 80s was a great time to be a kid in love with MX/dirt bikes and waiting at the mailbox for each monthly issue of their respective magazines.
Thanks for letting us know.
I've learned at Loma Linda (the closest hosp to Glen Helen and a most excellent trauma care center at that) the hot tip is to go to an urgent care center to get your xrays then go home rest and call your doc for an appt. (If your bones aren't sticking out)
I drove my bro to the ER there once in full gear, bike in the back, obvious broken tib/fib, no parking so i pull up to the ER in the No Parking Ambulance lane - he gets out and literally crawls 20 yards to the front door in all his riding gear while I go park, I wish I took a pic with the ER in the background while he crawiled. Injuries suck ER's suck even more. Get well soon Jody.
