Bill was jumping the quad for a few photographers. During one of the jumps he had no choice but to throw the quad away and land on his own two feet. In the process he broke his left leg. The diagnosis, as of this date, is multiple fractures in the left ankle area.

Yeah he is unstoppable but he has earned it. I would wish someone else to win but Bill is a great guy and is always positive with only good things to say, so I wish him nothing but the best of luck. I wanna see Chris Jenks win anyway :D

anybody know if Bill ended up getting (3rd) the bronze metal in the ESPN outdoor games in the Teracross ? All I caught was a replay of the event and they only told the winner(John Natalie), but did not tell 2nd and 3rd place. He was in 3rd with like under half the last lap to go ?

real good comment....grow up and think before you open your mouth next time. if he wins its because he was the best on that given day. its not like hes buying the wins or cheating for them.....y dont u go beat him so then u can hurt him on your own?

Your a fricking idiot....

And before any stupid rumors get started. Here's a quote from Johnny G.

"Hey guys I spoke with Bill earlier today and he is still in good spirits, and is looking forward to getting back on the bike ASAP.

Apparently Bill was jumping up a high-wall for the photographers on the 06 YFZ, and had done it many times succesfully. On what was to be his last attempt the front end shot up, and Bill bailed off the back of the bike landing on his feet and injuring his leg.

As of this morning he was held up in a bed and breakfast and catching up on his daytime television, before hopping a plane back to Kentucky. He wanted everyone to know that he will be back and 100% by this fall and is still on a mission to wrap up his 6th GNCC title"

I can't believe there are people in our sport that would say things like this.

Dude...do you have any idea how much the ballance family has done for our sport.

Would someone in the buffalo area please punch this guy in the mouth.

I want Borich to win the championship also, but never in a way like this. The only way to win it is to earn it. I hope Bill has a quick recovery and I look forward to seeing the Battle of the B's soon.

There's something with photoshoots!! The only time Jon got hurt, was on a photoshoot. The product quit on him and had to bail and broke his collarbone.

That's too bad for Ballance tho.

Do you ever have anything positive to say you little prick? Every post I see your bashing someone or something, or something completely stupid like this. I would recomened eathier stop posting this BS, or just leave the site before we run you off like that nacs_racing199 kid. Anyway, Im a borich fan myself but i still like bill alot, he only lives about 2 hours from me. I hope he can get back out there and give ole borich a run for his money!!!

I think I read on another site he was at a press intro for the new bike in California. Said it was his ankle that was broken. Should be a quick heal and he'll be back for the championship!

ok before i get bashed nemore, i know what i said was wrong. like i said after words the man is unstoppable, and the only true way to beat him is when hes hurt. borich proved this in the beggining of the year when ballance was slightly hurt, and borich won the events that ballance was hurt in. and if you compare me to that nacs racing kid/whitelakemotors, u need to get a life cuz that kid was a ***. oh and lil300exkid who made u the king of this site.
