Jarrett Out with Broken Wrist

Former OMA Champion Jimmy Jarrett confirmed that he broke his wrist and might have to miss this year’s ISDE in Portugal. Jarrett, who was set to represent the United States World Trophy team, broke the navicular bone in his wrist at last weekend’s OMA race in Wisconsin. Unfortunately, the navicular is know to be a slow healer.

“I fly down to [Florida] on Tuesday (July 21) and [Dr. Augustine's] going to fix me all up,” Jarrett said. “He said at least six weeks [to recover from the surgery]; he’s hoping that I’m back for the next GNCC on September 12, but we’ll cross that bridge when I get there.”

If Jarrett is indeed ready by the time the GNCC summer break ends, he will still miss three OMA rounds and most likely the ISDE in October, since a commitment to ride on the ISDE team must be made soon.

So who are the likely candidates to replace Jarrett on the U.S. ISDE Trophy team if need be? There are many, but Damon Huffman’s name has been mentioned, as well as Mike Brown’s
