As some of you know we had a very eventful weekend at Area 51. The weekend started off bad and ended bad. We left Friday at 5:30ish and after filling up at the nearest gas station, we discover a flat tire on the trailer. It was late enough most places were closed so off to walmart we went to get a tire. After all the mayhem we left home around 9ish. Got to NY late and stayed at a flying J. Got to the track early sat. morning and had a wonderful day of practicing. The track is awesome, very big with some elevation changes. Sat. evening we get a small wind storm and some rain. The track people stated they didn't water and the track would be perfect as the right amount of rain fell. We were like yeah right, when does that happen. We all decided to skip practice since we knew the track and the conditions would change by the time we were out there. We walked up to see the track and it turns out it was the right amount of rain cause the track looked perfect. Ashlee was already dressed she went back to head out. The first practice went well and since Allan was moto 3 we went back to get dressed. Walking back we noticed Ashlee got in line to go out with late practice. As we were getting ready some friends told us she had crashed so I went looking for her. As many of you know Ashlee tends to take some tumbles here and there and gets up and on her way. Not the case this time, She broke her femur and her wrist. Due to the main artery running along the femur they didn't want to risk a 40min ride in an ambulance so she got to ride in a brand new helicopter. She has a rod in her leg and they plated and pinned her wrist. We made it home last evening.
I would like to thank everyone that helped with us and showed their concerns. There were many people at the track helping us get stuff loaded. My phone was being blown up before we even got the hospital with everyone checking on Ashlee and how everything was going. The motocross community is an amazing family as we had people offering to help knowing we were in NY. We had our dog with us and even had a friend offer to come and get him. He was pretty much stuck in the motorhome while we were in and out of the hospital. The weekend seemed like a nightmare.
