So I never got back... Bike ran great..had good practice on Friday..and my first race on Saturday I was the carnage in the first turn this year..had a great start crested the hill and started heading up probably top 15...out of the corner of my eye 2 guys came together causing the other into me barely taking out my rear tire 4th gear punched! Needless to say I lawndarted into the ground...Broke 4th through 9th rib, scapula and clavicle w 2 bubbles and some blood in my lung! Oh joy!!! Can't wait till next year.

Took one week off work..drove in the next week..had enough of the traffic and back on the streetbike👍   Funny thing my daughter came up and picked me up out of the hospital. .she practice on thurs and raced on Sunday...first race for her at Mammoth finished 26th out of 38 women..you could say she was a little nervous on the start😋

I am always nervous when my kids do something, I couldn't imagine watching them dirt bike racing (I know how rough it was on me).  I'm glad you are doing okay, that sounded like a nasty wreck.  We need some video from next year if you go back.
