Man that blows as he has become my favorite rider in the 250 class.
Yaa it definitely sucks and is a blow to the outdoor series. Kinda crazy that hes been racing with a torn ACL since Indy 2017. Was that the practice session when Osborne stuffed him off the berm?
damnit, he said it happened in 2017, so why he getting surgery now? couldn't he wait til after outdoors? man i was stoked for his win but that news sucks i was looking foward to seeing him outdoors
Huge bummer but can understand he wants to get it fixed.
He’s had a great consistent season and completed every race, that’s a victory

If he waits till after outdoors to fix it then he'll miss supercross next year. Supercross is where the moneys at and mainly where the sponsers want to see their riders.

ah yea i forgot acl's take so long to recover.. damn.
He probably knows the pounding of long outdoor Moto's he never make it. I'm sure that's why he's doing it now Supercross is all about timing and short motos
Edited Date/Time:
Adam lost the championship last year by 3 points and this year by 3 points..that's gotta sting! Hope he has a solid recovery.
Edited Date/Time:
It almost seems that is a way to do suoercross only, at vegas announce you will need "surgery " and walla, no outdoors
I hope he heals up well.

2 and 2 make....3? You say?
Haha, guess I should have read that one before hitting submit..
When crossed the finish line last night, I thought: man he looked good, excited to see what he can do outdoors this year..
Heal up AC!
With another year of growing on his frame I would think he's going to be too big for a 250f. Then again hoping on a 450 right after an acl .... yeah not sure how that'd go.
No matter what get well quickly Adam you'll certainly be missed this summer.
I guess a regional title is worth more than a national one. Skipping getting it fixed last off season so he could win a regional sx title worked out great this year. Nothing saying it'll be any different next year. Couldn't he get it fixed after outdoors and be back for East Coast?
As much technology thats in all these thousand dollar knee braces you would think things like this wouldn’t happen as often as it does
