I have to share a funny. In the race following Dean's accident his name kept popping up on the electronic timing feild. I commented on this and someone else in the tower noted that the 'spirit of Dean' just refused to leave the track even as we could see the ambulance pulling out the driveway. It really started to be weird as every once in a while Dean's name would jump on the screen. We finally figured it out when we noticed Bob Arnett walking near the detection loop and the transponder in his pocket sending us the signal. That is really funny ;D.

My husband, John and I want to send our encouragement. You'll remember John as the guy in the wheelchair watching the races. He had his "big bif" on April 9 and is now working on the ranch. He crushed his tibia and had his shoulder ball joint replaced. When the good doctors said things like,,," you may never...., It might be as long as......., your range of motion may........" Just smile and let them do their job, knowing that you will heal much faster if you avoid all that negative prognosis stuff! We found a positive outlook to be great medicine. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. the wisler family. Thanks for the encouragement, yes a positive attitude will help every situation. I hope John is doing well!

Dean - can you explain what's going on here??? Looks like a rod into the joint of your hip? What kind of range of motion are you gonna have?? I will give it my best shot. The ball of the hip joint basically broke off straight up from the inside of the femur – the ball stayed in the socket it just pushed the whole leg up toward the top of my hip. To fix it they pulled the leg back down so it lined up with the ball again and used the four lower screws to anchor a plate to the femur. The top long screw goes through a sleeve in the plate, which stabilizes everything, but still allows a pivot point for full range of motion (some day). Thanks for all the nice comments. Its going to be a long recovery and I cant even imagine how bad my conditioning will be once I’m able get on my bike again. Right now I have a lap time of about 8 minutes to get out of my chair, into my walker and make one trip through the house, hopefully I will have that cut in half by this time next week.

Here is a picture of the newly obtained hardware. I would be more than happy to trade for a front wheel and sub frame!

I just want to say thank you very much to all of you who loaded my twisted body in the ambulance, put my bent bike in the trailer (which I heard took 4 people to carry) and loaded all my crap.
Very special thanks to Nick for bringing it all back home. Ria, Jason and Langston for letting Diane use their car while we were in Bozeman. Along with all of you who came to visit, called and sent texts.
Oh yea, and the Post Ryno started, my wife was laughing so hard I think she wet her pants but I didn't think it was all that funny.

Isn't the site for montana motocross? Which includes the HCMA? That's true, but the site does NOT belong to the HCMA.

Starting to think there is somethin shady going on in the hcma? I cant post my opinion about something without it being taken off here right away? Nothing i said was inappropriate or vulgar. So why did my comments get erased off of here if it wasnt something people were worried about others reading? If there's favortism going on people need to know about it. This site has nothing to do with the HCMA other then we offer some information about the organization on one of our pages. The reason I remove topics is because I want posts to be positive not an outlet for a bunch of BS. If you have a complaint with the HCMA contact one of the officers. Here is a good example of how I want the site used. - mtmx.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=motochatter&action=display&thread=2196
