Jackass will be back after Japan for sure. He was riding his bicycle on an indoor trainer in his instagram stories yesterday
 
It's amazing how well you can recover when you have money.

I had a spiral distil fracture of my Tib and was unfortunately unemployed/uninsured at the time. Yale New Haven fixed me up for about 50k and I spent 5.5 months in a cast and out of work. I got a job about 2 weeks after getting out of my cast and called Yale to inquire about physical therapy. I was told that I'm young and didn't need it.

7.5 years later, my leg still hurts and I cannot run/jog/jump. Some days, my leg aches for now known reason.

Meanwhile, rich folk break their legs and are back up and at em in a matter of weeks.

every break is different. spiral fractures are no joke. id def bet that Miller's was not that bad. fewer pieces, less hardware, easier alignment for the surgeon, etc etc. hell, i broke my collarbone into 5 pieces and went back to rock climbing 4wks after it was plated. some breaks and ppl respond really well to surgical procedures.

MotoGP: Test rider Aoyama to replace Miller for Motegi

More infoz

http://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport...st-rider-aoyama-to-replace-miller-for-motegi/

Japanese test rider and former 250GP world champion Hiroshi Aoyama will return to MotoGP action at next weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix, when he joins the Marc VDS Honda squad to replace the injured Jack Miller at his home race.

Aoyama spent four seasons in the premier class after becoming world champion, but since 2015 has been one of the leading testing and development riders for Honda’s RC213V MotoGP machine – meaning he’ll be jumping onto a machine that he knows well come next week’s race at Motegi.

And, having worked with many of the crew in the past and joining fellow middleweight world champion Tito Rabat in the box, the 35-year-old says he’s relishing the opportunity to race in front of a home crowd.

"Firstly I want to wish Jack a speedy recovery and I hope he will be fit to race in his home Grand Prix at Phillip Island. It’s never nice to replace an injured rider but I hope that I can do a good job for both Jack and the team in Motegi. I also want to thank Michael Bartholemy and Team Estrella Galicia 0,0 Marc VDS for giving me the opportunity to race once again in front of the Japanese fans.

“I have not raced yet this season, so it will take some time to get back the feeling. The fact that I already know a lot of the crew, having worked with them in the past, will help a lot, as will having a rider with Tito’s experience on the other side of the box. I am looking forward to the weekend ahead!”

When I poked fun at him and BrotoGP for not posting anymore, he PM'ed me and said he wasn't posting for other reasons.

Perhaps BARF just ain't doin' it for him anymore. Ain't hard to get burnt out on the forum, especially if you spend time in the Politics forum.

Get him Zuma and he will be back.

Honestly nothing is going come close to the 2015 and 2016 MM Rossi drama, 2017 is back to normal good racing so there are going to be fewer posts I guess.

Soooooo, I just finished the moto2 race. That last pass by Morbidelli, wow. That dude is the real deal. Watching him set that up for a couple of corners was just awesome.

Kev said in the last podcast [i think] that whoever wins Motegi will probably take the championship. While I don't necessarily buy that [he might not even buy it if he's sober], it does leave the door open for Mr. Dovizioso. That I like.
 
No context?

Implied context is he's forgetting about Valencia or not going for some reason.

But, looking at the tweet he's replying to someone who thought he was flying back to Spain when he's going to Tokyo. He's then listing where he's going and ending with, "and then will see...", Implying he's going to Spain after that.

So actual context, he's replying to a fan/friends about when he'll be back in Spain.
