During a practice session this week, Liqui Moly Factory Beta Supercross rider Benny Bloss sustained a fracture to his arm and collarbone, which will see him miss the remainder of the 2024 Supercross season.

 

Bloss was putting in practice laps in preparation for this weekend's Supercross round when the incident occurred. This setback comes after a series of quality riding and good results from Bloss. His focus now is to recover and go through the rehabilitation process to come back even stronger.

 

"I am super super bummed for Benny. He has had a fantastic season representing the new 450 RX and we are in such a good spot with him and the bike. This sport likes to test your mental strength every day and all we can take from this situation is that we know the level Benny can get back to and better when he heals up. He will undergo needed surgery and begin the road to recovery. He will be supporting his teammate Colt over the next two rounds as we are still in full swing to better ourselves each weekend," said Supercross Team Manager Carlen Gardner.

Well shit.   He was giving Beta some good exposure.    Hope he heals up quick.

Bummer. They have to put someone else on the bike this summer, right?

I think they are only racing select rounds this summer. I doubt they have to put someone on the bike but would be cool if they did. But last I heard they are only doing like 3 rounds of outdoors.

I’ve said this before.  I’d never guessed Benny would have made the showing he did.  I even questioned why Beta signed him to start with.  I have a friend that owns a Beta dealership.  He told me as soon as they signed him early on Benny was the right guy.  That Beta knew what they were doing when they signed him.  Show ya what I know.  I felt like Colt would have made a better showing but I think he’s still a little wounded.  I bet both do well next year.

Just one question comes to my mind, bike trouble? Famous for cutting out.

That absolutely sucks...  I bet he does a couple extra outdoor rounds later in the year.

Balls! Was really hoping the injury train was sidelined for a while.

Hard luck Benny that really sucks!

As a fill-in, a fearless young rider.

I'd be looking at a few seasons down the track with an eye to the future.
