From an e-mail from Greg Esser:

“After 15 long weeks, I got this cast off July 23rd. So I will be at VIR to try to ride. I should have enough movement to shift and ride well enough to enjoy racing again.

“I used crutches the first day the cast was removed, but since then have been walking and riding my bicycle. As the day goes along, it does swell quite a bit. So I will have to be careful of that. By next week, it should be even better and that’s what I am hoping for.

“I’ll see you there on Thursday (August 8).

“Greg Esser”


Editorial Note: Esser, 42, crashed his Honda RS250 during the AMA event at California Speedway in April. Esser broke his left ankle badly, and doctors initially told Esser that he would never ride again.
