Discount Tire/TwoTwo Motorsports’s Chad Reed said via his Twitter account that he will undergo surgery today on his shoulder: “Getting surgery on my shoulder (for those asking) It’s the one I hurt in Santa Clara and why I missed NJ.. Quick turn around I’m told.”
The team has not issued any statement, nor did Reed mention how long he might be out of action, if at all (other than there being the possibility of a “quick turn around”).
Reed has been struggling in the Lucas Oil AMA Pro Motocross Championship, where he is currently 18th in points.
