Oh man, I'm truly sorry to hear that. That was a very active day for emergency services, for sure. How are you doing now after 3 weeks? I have had 1st hand experience with that subject, and I had a few pins in mine at one time. Hopefully, you didn't have to have surgery?

Thank you my friend ❤️

@@BMXster 🤛

Yeah, ( Thrillbilly ) mentioned he was hitting a few of the GC

@@BMXster Holy crap man he would 😀👍 I hope you're alright btw!

I've always been geared up from head to toe. There's been a few times I've been thankful for it.

BMX misses you too! 😄 There's never a better time than now to get back on that steel horse 🐎 Thanks for coming by to say hi @midwestmafia8391. I appreciate it!

@@BMXster I will be 50 in a few weeks. Haven’t been on 4130 since 1998. Had some misfortunes in my life. But now I’m over 11 years sober. BMX has never left my blood. I got second in the state of Illinois in novice in 1996. I had first. But my buddy had a birthday two weeks before the state championship. And moved him into my class. He had 8 more points. And in the second moto I wrecked and smashed my face on the dirt. Knocked me out and broke my jaw. I was wearing and open face with a jofa. So I stuck around and self medicated, on booze and narcotics, got last in the third moto and last in the main. And I got second in state. But I still have my complete 24” Widowmaker. Probably a 1995 model. Still have my menstrual cycle and my challenger. I was half ass sponsored by S&M. Was a dealer for them in my shop since 1993. Bought my 24” wheels from Mike Mchue when he worked at system cycle. Used to get all my stuff from John Paul Rogers and Chris Stevenson. I’m still good friends with Chris. I got all the old school stuff. I just sold my complete never assembled mini cobra. BMX is a disease. Not one day has went by that I don’t think about bmx.

@@BMXstersame here..Fam doesn’t back me.. came back to try to fulfill my goal.. Making a cruiser main and a 1st in class… But just received grief as always

@mygolfballsannoy Well, congratulations, my friend! It can be easy to say from an outside prospective to continue with it if you're truly passionate about it. I can't imagine how difficult it must be not to have the support of your loved ones. You gotta get a few race clips up even if it's a #short

@@BMXster​​⁠i do.. in private.. Most of my adult bmx years i have no vid.. Because no one came to local/races with me.. always alone🤣🤣…..😭😭…🤣🤣

I appreciate the kind words! How are you doing now? I'm progressing day by day. I ended up with a posterior shoulder dislocation, which accounts for only 2% of all dislocations. Which is where humerus ball was out of the socket behind my scapula. Pretty gnarly! 😆

@@BMXster ooh, mine wasnt that bad I slid out in turn one after tapping my breaks, had a giant bump on my elbow for a few minutes, and it was sore for like 2 weeks, im alright now though Hope you get better!

That sucks! It sounds like you were able to hop back up and finish it out? How did you finish out the weekend? Did you walk away with any Gold?

@@BMXster Yeah, i stood up instantly and rode off, it really only started hurting after the line. I crashed round 1 on saturday so I was able to race mains, I got first and first in class all weekend! So I finished overall Gold Cup #1 for 16x

Niiiice, that's impressive ‼️🤘💪 That's not an easy class ur runnin in either.

Wow, No Bueno! Concussions are no joke. I hope all is well with you now! I hadn't realized so many people wrecked out. Which day was it that, that happen?

@@BMXster the 1 day I think

@squidy_bloxburg How are you doing now as a result of that? I hope it's all behind you by now. I think the next video I'm gonna put out is from Race of Champions from last year. Good stuff!

Thanks, Nick! It was pretty nasty getting sent face first into the berm full speed!

@@BMXster I saw I was right up against the fence the other guy that went down walked over to the step up going into first turn where I was at

@nicksoppe7371 That's wild. You must have had the good seats that day 😆

Thanks for coming by and saying hi, I appreciate that! I got tapped perfectly on the rear tire, I'm guessing by the looks of my race rig.
