The downside of this sport is definitely the injuries and Jessy Nelson is the latest injury victim as he suffered from a crash in the second moto at Unadilla.

He has given us an update on his Instagram and says “At this time I have limited feeling from my waist down. The hope is that after the swelling goes down, I will get some more feeling back”.

Update: In the second Moto at Unadilla, I had a crash in a tricky turn, ultimately ending with a red flag for the race. I went down pretty hard of a direct result of the bike hitting me from behind. I am currently at a hospital in Cooperstown, NY where we are waiting for some swelling to go down in my back before doing surgery. At this time I have limited feeling from my waist down. The hope is that after the swelling goes down, I will get some more feeling back. Thank you all for your support, kind thoughts and prayers. I will keep you posted in the next few days!
