If anyone has any photos or visual accounts of this I'd love to know what I survived. I've heard the bike looked spectacular doing cartwheels down the track.

Below are the photos and X-rays showing the progression of my left wrist repair.
Ted Duncan - NV722 - LRRS

On 04/26/2008
A green Kawi lost traction in race 3 on the straight between turn 2 and 3. The Kawi bounced off the wall and slid back towards the center of the track. It had almost come to rest then a second rider hit the downed Kawasaki at full speed, which spun it across the track again right in front of me. With no time to react, I hit it head on breaking the front wheel, bending both forks among other damage and sending me over the bars Superman style. I landed with my left hand under my chest before rolling and sliding. With full weight of body in motion, my wrist was shattered. The Injury was at approximately 1:30pm.

I am currently looking for a 2-5 race per weekend LRRS amateur or expert class rider for our 2001 sv650 supersport. Let me know if you're interested. email me at "race@duncanmoto.com" or drop by garage North 16 the next race weekend (on Friday afternoon/night)

If you wish to help support the fund to pay for my injury, please just buy something from our online store. I'm not looking for any charity, but we have some great products. Email me anything and everything you want and I'll email back any special pricing I can do.
