Fahringer Out For Season

Nick Fahringer revealed after the Big Muskie Enduro that he had torn the ACL in his knee a week before the Ohio race and is scheduled to undergo surgery on Friday, Sept 2nd, which will keep him from riding the series finale in October. “I was out training by myself, doing some turning drills and I was pushing hard and just spun out and landed on my knee funny and I felt it pop and there was a lot of pain. After a trip to my surgeon he said my ACL didn’t feel right so I got an MRI and they said it was a tear. I knew I would have to get surgery but I kept it quiet because I didn’t want anyone to have a mental advantage over me. It will be about a four-month recovery so I want to get it taken care of so I can be ready for next year.”
