Tommy's time off
By TMX Archives on 28th Jan 10
FMF KTM rider, Britain's Tommy Searle is at his home in Murrieta, California, recovering from a practice crash at Anaheim Two that kept him from competing in Saturday night's main event.
Searle crashed during the second practice at the Anaheim event, falling hard on his right side and injuring his right shoulder. I went to the Asterisk Medical Unit for assistance straight after the incident and then tried to race in my heat. Unfortunately the pain increased and I was not able to complete the race, explained Searle.
Tommy was planning to rest the first half of the week to see if the pain subsides. At this point it is not certain if Tommy will be able to ride in San Francisco. He is focused on recovering and hopes to be ready for this weekend, explained Casey Lytle, the FMF KTM Factory Team manager.
