Eli Tomac undergoes successful shoulder surgery; prognosis improves
CORONA, Calif. (June 8) -- GEICO Honda rider Eli Tomac underwent successful surgery on his left shoulder last Thursday and is on the road to recovery following his motocross accident May 30 at the Thunder Valley National in Denver.
Doctors at Steadman Clinic in Vail, Colo., successfully repaired damaged tendons in Tomac's left shoulder. The surgery for Tomac's right shoulder, which needs a less-complicated repair, has been scheduled to take place in two weeks.
Tomac already has begun physical therapy to aid in the immediate recovery of the injury. A complete recovery is expected for both shoulders later this fall.

Just wondering because Eli's contract situation is kinda unknown.

Hoping he makes it back for the MXDN so we have some kind of chance of winning...
If Stewart comes back for the last couple of outdoor races, I think he should be on the team.
No Tomac
No Canard
No chance at the MXDN

It's normal to start physical therapy soon after surgery.
They had me up and walking the same day for a total knee replacement.
Don't get me wrong. It's sad to see any rider go down and get hurt. I'm just pointing out the Bull Shit they put in the press release.

Physical therapy at this point could be as simple as a recirculating cooler to keep swelling down.
Ok, fine.. Let's throw logic out the window. Here's an exclusive photo of Tomac testing the new Leatt Moto Body Brace prototype..
Hopefully Eli can come back strong on the Kawasaki @ A-1, he's on a different riding level than everyone else right now.
