Raced the 00 GG250 for the first time this year last weekend after practice, prep. work, etc. Was racing the 04 GG200, but wanted to give it a break as some sand races were coming up where more power would be nice.
The bike handled great, had a very good start and was riding in the top 5 most of the day until the last lap about 1 1/2 hrs in.
Then the bad.... Was coming up on a steep, tight down hill that i had no probs on all day. Came up on it 2 fast, chopped my rear brake to hard at the start of the down hill and it locked the rear. The bike was sliding out sideways so I let off to correct but by then was at the steepest, roughest part. The bike corrected but was to late as I sped down the hill at a very high speed.
Ended up flipping over the bars and the bike slammed on me like a fly swatter.
The result was a broken femur on my upper right leg
It was quite a bit of pain as I laid on ground until marshals showed. I was on a helicopter about 1 hr later being pumped with morphine.
I am back home now and am starting to build back up, but I think I'll be off a bike for a while.
