 Yeah two days ago I appeared on the front of my local newspaper being airlifted off the top of a mountain. I crashed and gashed my leg to the bone. Went to the E.R and got emergency surgery to clean it out and get it closed up. Gunna be off the bike for weeks now. Feel better Troy! I don't know why I replied to this comment soo give me a break haha im on vicodon!

 Your hearts in the right place bro and that is all that matters. That was one tough battle that your mom went through and im glad she won it. Troy, stay positive and take the time off to heal first and when your ready to get back on that bike your fans will be there cheering you on. You can count on that! Sam being a dad sure changes one's perspective on life doesnt it! I should know because I sure love my son, so go to MSA and win one for Bam!!!

 The smalls turn quicker plus a little lighter, but only slightly less stable. If I were loaded I would easily pay $10g.

 A Sam/Troy 1/2 at Worlds would be awesome!

Hope Troy heals up well, and it doesn't knock his confidence to much, but hearing him talk it doesn't seem to have.

Loving seeing Sam on the podium again, hoping it's the top step soon! If for no reason other than it will mean Gwin isn't on it!.. and I prefer Sam..

 f*ck, this is the first I heard of this. I was wondering where he was. I hate hearing about things like this. I hope he heals up and comes back stronger. I've had a back injury for 6 months, it's looking like I'm having surgery, and after hearing about a lot of people getting hurt bad, I don't know if I'm coming back to DH.

 It wouldn't be Monster Specialized if they didn't have at least 1 rider injured. Wink

Seriously though, I do hope Troy recovers well and soon. He's definitely on of those wildcard riders that can upset the big guns

 Awsome to see that even big companys such as Monster energy Specialized actually would do this for charity. Hats off to you guys. Hope you heal up fast troy and everyone else who has an injury Smile

 "Any stuff for charity is good, even if you only raise 20 bucks."

I have a feeling that frame may fetch more than 20 bucks... lol
