lol dude says no excuses but proceeds to make EVERY excuse he can. Dudes washed, videos are where he needs to stay instead of making nationals, just vlog em and stop making your self look stupid
Tony Garcia who the frick are you dude? Still trying to figure out if you’re just the weakest link or the missing link either way you a bitch and you speak of this man with respect!
Well damn, that was completely an unnecessary comment to make. Who are you great wiseman? Maybe he doesn’t give a f*ck what you think buddy! Dudes out here living his best life. Getting to travel, getting to film, getting to ride, and who is he hurting besides himself anyway? Maybe you should focus more on just watching the videos and not allowing yourself to let any of your thoughts leak out of your brain and into any comment sections.
we came down from Canada on the weekend to watch; we parked by the house on the pro pits side and there was a shortcut through a ditch into the other parking where we walked along the fence and right when we got by the road the gate was open so we strolled through and you were like the 3rd person we saw. I've met plenty of riders I've watched on T.V but I saw you and top chick and felt the presence of greatness. We didn't stop and say hello cause there was a few people but it was a shock seeing you guys. Didn't know you were going to be there. Bummed for your knee but it'll heal if you let it haha
You are an absolute gladiator. I wanna say ‘get back on the bike as fast as you can’ cause i love seeing you up there, but honestly, i’d much rather you take your time and get back healthy. I really admire a guy that can go out on a seemingly random saturday and stand among the 40 baddest riders in the US on that day. If you had to see yourself from the bottom of the mountain like the rest of us, you’d be just as perplexed as the rest of us on how a guy with a pickup and a tent got up there😂. But for real: we’re wishing you a full and speedy recovery, so you can get back up there; no coice.
It’s crazy how much GoPros tame the looks of the track down. Been lucky enough to ride this track 4 times this year. One of them being conditions like this. It’s gnarly
Healing from my acl at washougal really changed my mind on ACL injuries. I thought they were the end of the world. I healed fully in about 6-8 months after surgery. Full ACL , MCL and partial meniscus tear. Heal up dude!
The ruts were nasty,I don’t know why they didn’t doze them all not just a few. I thought I would have needed boots but it wasn’t muddy . $65 bucks this year General admission. It was worth every penny.
You gave it a good go, still better than me even with a wrecked knee. I broke my friends mom's arm when I cross rutted and the bike went flying. Looks like you and TC had a good time anyway.
the least expensive way to get an MRI ( when your insurance denies you) is to ask your doctor to send the request to an independent imaging Lab. I did that for both my Shoulder (rotator cuff) and Knee in the last few years after being denied by Obama Care. Here in Nor -Cal there is Santa Rosa Imaging, an MRI is 500 bucks, complete with diagnosis report.
was lucky enough to race it in the 90s amateur day. they cut the screw-u and some of the back side hills, but what an amazing, brutal, and FAST track...even back then.the true "natural terrain" MX track. just long, fast ups, downs, and off cambers. they've actually added a lot of man-made stuff to it over the years. gravity cavity is the only big jump I can recall from back in the day. typical of unadilla too: no landing. just send it a dozen times to created your own landing area. 😆
I used a bicycle to help my knee back into action. Do the work with the good leg, letting the injured one just go along for the ride. I never needed surgery and with medical errors being the third leading cause of death, I'll take that as a win.
@@mattburkeen820 no matter what the haters say they are usually the ones that never rode a pro motocross national let alone rode the track any other time. Being hurt and doing anything sucks let alone trying to manhandle a bike in the toughest conditions.
This is medical advice. I was accepted into 2 medical schools but didn't have the money to go and I torn my acl and had to have it redone because the Dr, who was the physician for the Olympic team at the time, caused an infection. First, get the swelling down. You can safely take up to 800 MG of ibuprofen 3 times a day. You can test your acl yourself by sitting on a chair with your legs hung over the front. Grab behind your shin and pull forward while holding your thigh with the other hand. You should have minimal movement. Compare to the other knee. You can pop your knee and not tear and acl. I did this when I had my foot got bumped and I ran over it. Yes, I ran over my foot. As far as tearing the acl, you can ride with a torn acl but it takes several weeks before the knee becomes stable and it will never be completely stable. I waited almost a yr to have my acl surgery. I first couple of months after the initial injury, my knee would buckle on a rough track and every time I'm trying to squeeze the bike, so constantly. At a yr post injury it was pretty good, but a doctor talked me into having surgery and then the infection. That infection destroyed my meniscus which left me with bone on bone. I still ride and even run, although doctors said I wouldn't be able to. First step is getting the fluid out then strengthen by riding a bicycle. You probably have a tear in the meniscus and possibly the acl is compromised. Usually the go hand in hand. I hope that you heal up quickly
Oh that sucks... But they can actually fix those pretty good nowadays. Ask for the "MX-riders extra fortified ligament". I got that, seems to work. extra scar, meh
@@mattburkeen820 Anytime man, definitely help me out with 10 broken ribs and exploded shoulder blade a few years back so it'll help you man for sure!! Love your content bro keep it up!!
I was watching you struggle and thinking Damn , what were you going to do if you actually made the race (30+2 times 2 of knee torture) Good luck at Budds
But then again, I see exactly exactly where he’s coming from, injury sucks. Hopefully, he can find his rhythm again, but I really like the videos he makes
