That sucks... It not only makes the remaining sx slightly less interesting... but will really take away from the nationals also (esp if JBS, TuTu, and/or others don't race outdoors). Every outdoor race might just end up being 2 riders battling for the win in nearly every race (RD vs. RV).
I've heard that we're seeing more broken femurs because of the improvement of riding boots and the advent of knee braces. With everything held together so well, something has to 'give' somewhere. I've got knee issues, wear CTI's, all in all I suppose a broken bone is better than an ACL reconstruction.... but I heard a femur is a painful one, haven't been through that.
When was the last time a racer on a 2 stroke broke a femur? I know, its a loaded statement! I read the fracture was not too bad, and they are looking at a quick recovery. Good deal, plaster still makes you faster.
