Going to be a long painful winter of rehab but I can say 100% for sure I will be racing round 1.
It all started with destroying my bike and breaking my hand Saturday morning practice during round 6 which ended my 2015 season. I was determined to get back and do some off road riding so I parted out the bike mostly and got a 2008 crf250r for off season training and maybe for flat tracking. Next hurdle comes in finding out my trailer axle is bent and needs to be replaced which I haven't got to yet. Not a big deal I'm thinking I'll just jack it up and swap it out after my vacation to Aruba I have planned.
Proceed to tear my pectoral major in my right arm on a rope swing in Aruba and needed surgery to reattach the tendon to my arm. 4 weeks in a sling and 4 months until its back to normal.
So day 1 after surgery here I sit counting down the days until I can ride and I know the driving factor in recovery is the need to race next year. Can't wait to see everyone at the track in the spring and get back to the addiction.
Checklist:
:Sell the Ducati street bike to finance the race bike + extra cash
:Get an '08-'12 600 pre-built (wrenching with 1 arm is hard)
:Fix the trailer
:Be able to move my arm
:Be able to ride
:New helmet
