Motoconcept 2stroke challenge postponed?
« on: January 13, 2011, 12:41:49 AM »
Cedric was testing out at milestone today riding SX, crashed in a rythem section and injured both elbows. Xrays show no broken bones. We could not see the 2stroke until LA.

here is the full story and a little video of him from DV.

Wonder if they could find a replacement rider to put out there? I'm sure there are plenty of riders who would like the chance. Josh Hill?

Man, I have to hold my tongue on Vital. Here's GuyB's response to Soub's injury:

Did he drop a valve?

I don't know why I'm surprised when stupid people act stupid. If this was a 4-stroke rider they would be talking about how heartbreaking it is. Look at Jake Weimer for example.

Don't get into it. Let them act like children.
Just sit back and laugh. :)

That sucks! I hate when this happens to a rider before their series even starts, atleast he's ok and will be coming back soon. I wonder how he hurt both elbows?

Stupid postes like that are useless to anyone, they should be bumed to hear a rider is down instead of trying to be funny.

GuyB and Davey Coombs probably could not be happier.

I think he may try and race if he just brusied them.  Maybe atleast go out for practice and see what kind of lap times he can pull to see where they are at

I hope he will be ok in time for Phoenix.
If not, put someone else on the bike, untill Cedric gets back.
We need all exposure we can get.
Will be interesting to hear what the announcers in the commetator boot have to say about it all.
When will they stop brainwashing the spectators and fans?
I don't understand why Emig, Carmichael and other commentators are praising that 4 stroke hype?
They should be telling the truth, and keep people udated...

X2. Hope Soub gets well, but if he can't make Phoenix, put someone else on the bike. I would like to see Watson out there.
