ETSU Spring Race - Nationals Qualifier

[milohead]

+2 to Thomas and the ETSU crew! Awesome day yesterday and I was literally DEAD when I got home at 10:00 last night. Thanks for letting us be a part of the event and a personal thanks from me for letting me get one run in at the end.

Pics coming soon, always takes a couple of days as I have prob 2000+ frames to go through. Here's another one from Fri practice to hold everybody over.

I never saw this kid ride the dh trail but he was killin it on the DS.

Wish I could have raced. I was there Friday riding the track getting ready for the race. All I did was run off the trail a little and tore my ACL MCL and Pettlla tindon. But let me say we were having a great time on the track. Way to go ETSU I will see you next year.

Does anyone know if USA Cycling will help me on medical bills I am a License holder.

Pulled 220cc of blood/fluid off my knee.

Here's just a few shots from Friday. I didn't have the camera out too long on Friday as Heither and I ran the course 3 times. There are LOTS more to come for Saturday's gallery. Thanks again!

This was my boys' second downhill and first ever slalom race - and we loved it! Thank you so much to all of the ETSU volunteers who put in so much time and effort to make this a wonderful day! Thank you also for breaking down the juniors into age classes. That really meant a lot to the younger riders.

It will depend on several things.
1. Were you registered to race already?
2. What days did ETSU buy insurance for?
3. Did you fill out a USAC incident report with a USAC or EMT official on site?
If the above are in your favor, then USAC insurance will kick in as your secondary to whatever primary health coverage you may have.

If you have NO primary health care coverage, then yes. You have to pay the deductible and then if I'm not wrong it's 70/30.

I had to have my ACL re-done b/c I blew it in qualifying at Nationals in Seven Springs. Had the EMT's complete a report. My $16k worth of bills and custom Cti brace only cost me $4k in the end.

Call the event promoter and find out ASAP.

Here is the USAC info on filing. If covered, you have 30 days to file a claim:
