Aaron Plessinger posted an update regarding his condition following a first turn crash during moto one at round five of the AMA Pro Motocross Championship at RedBud. Plessinger fell in turn one and sustained “a nice cut right on my tailbone” which required stitches. He did not finish a lap in either moto and posted his worst result of the season (39-41) in 41st overall. Despite not scoring points on the day, AP7 still sits 10th in the series standings.
“First off thank you to everyone that has checked in on me,” Plessinger posted. “Well Redbud did not go as I expected. It’s such a bummer to go down like that without even a lap in. I ended up getting a decent jump out of the gate and going down in the first corner and as soon as I hit the ground I got hit from behind, It tore my pants and gave me a nice cut right on my tailbone. The guys over at Alpinestars Medic unit got me cleaned up, stitched up and on my way, I want to thank them for that. As much as it sucks im glad it’s not worse and I’m glad nothing is broken. Gonna get this wound healed up and be back as soon as I can. Thank you everyone for your support! Hoping this black cloud I’m under passes by soon.”
