Thank you

I would like to start off by saying thank you dan for setting a fun course once again.
I raced the second race at 2 and was having a great time! I was racing around from 2nd to 3rd and back to 2nd. Around mile 5 or so on my first lap I was at the hill that when you get to the top there is the power lines after about .3 miles of woods.
So I was headed up this hill and about 1/2 up the hill when my front tire caught a rock and sent me towards a tree. My barkbuster caught the tree, which sent the left side of the handlebar back. The barkbuster caught my hand and at the time I had thought had sprained it.
Conveniently, about 30 seconds later a guy on a Kawasaki and a senior class worker stopped to help me. The Kawasaki rider (didn't catch his number or name) got my bike to the top.
The senior rider then went looking for a way out because I knew I was done. While he was gone another worker pulled up and waited with me.
When he came back they both escorted me out and I got back to the truck. The guy on the ktm helped me put my bike on the stand.
My dad got back and we loaded up and went home. I put ice on it for the way home. My parents said that it was probably just sprained it really bad.
So I went to school the next day and my mom made an appointment with a doctor to have it x rayed.
Well it turns out that I bent my wrist bone. I am young so it bent and not broke it. So I am out for two weeks.
The point I am trying to get to is thank you to the people who stopped and helped. I never got the chance.
