Chad Reed. May 2008
Despite sustaining horrific injuries during a practice accident Chad Reed checked out of hospital - against professional advice - to line up in both heats of the AMA Supercross with a broken shoulder blade and abdominal contusions. He finished a gutsy 12th place to pick up valuable championship points. With three rounds remaining Reed held a 16 point lead over second placed rider Kevin Windham.
