At the King of the Motos enduro race a week ago, Taylor Robert had a very high speed get off. The crash resulted in small tears to his liver, kidney and intestines along with 2 broken ribs and fractures to his sacrum, L2, L3, L4 and L5 vertebrae. It’s long list of injuries but at the speed he was traveling at when he crashed, it definitely could of been worse.

We are glad to hear Taylor is expected to make a full recovery and we wish him well. Check out video of Taylor’s crash and his Instagram post where he updates everyone on his condition.

I've been in the hospital for a week now and today is the first day I've felt some solid progress. A week ago today this video happened when I was battling with @codywebb2 for the lead. I was rushed from King of Motos to the hospital. My initial prognosis was small tears in my liver and kidney, along with 2 broken ribs and fractures in my sacrum, L2, L3, L4 and L5 vertebrae. After being in the hospital for for 2 days I was having intense stomach pains and had another CT scan that showed a tear in my intestines. I was rushed into emergency surgery around midnight. Surgery didn't go as easily as they had hoped so I was sedated on a ventilator, with my abdomen open for 2 days before doing another operation. I finally moved out of ICU yesterday and am on my way to making some progress towards recovery. I want to thank my fiancé and mom for staying by my side this whole time. I also want to thank all my friends who stopped to check on me out on the track. Luckily through all of this I don't have any head injuries and they think I passed out from my lungs collapsing and pain. Thank you to everyone who has reached out to me and I will start working on getting back to everyone asap.
