What Role Does a Physio Play in a Prestigious International Motocross Event? Jessica Smith Reveals All Here… What role does a physio play in a prestigious international motocross event? Jessica Smith reveals all here… Physiotherapist, Jessica Smith from our Rosebud clinic, recently returned from France where she undertook the role of Physiotherapist for the Australian Enduro Motocross Team. Here, she gives us some insight into the role that a Physiotherapist plays in an intensive event like motocross. I recently had the absolute privilege of being the physiotherapist for the Australian Enduro Motocross Team who competed at the 2017 FIM International Six Days Enduro (ISDE), held in Brive-la-Gaillarde, France from 28 August to 2 September. Ten riders made up three Trophy Teams, who competed against 32 rival nations, representing Australia at the highest level in Enduro and Off-Road racing. I can not thank Jon, Simon and the whole AORC/MA team for giving me this opportunity, of which I am still absolutely buzzing from. Firstly a huge congratulations to the now 5x world champion Aussie Women’s team finishing 1st. The Aussie senior male team finished second, putting in huge efforts throughout the week. I have such admiration for the riders and what they put their bodies through over the six day event. My role during the week was assisting the 10 riders in getting their bodies ready for the six day event, including advice and education regarding stretches, nuero-muscular enhancing exercises and providing manual therapy techniques most commonly to their thoracic spine and hips. Once the event begun I was also assisting the riders with basic first aid and managing any injuries sustained during the day. Jess Gardiner was unlucky enough to sustain a fracture through her proximal phalanx in the first test of day one. She rode out the week with a displaced fracture. Management including making 2x thermoplastic splints, wound cleaning and pain management. After the event Jess went on to have surgery. Other injuries included a rock to the clavicle, thoracic jarring secondary to heavy impact into tree, contusion over tibia, general skin abrasions and general LBP and hip flexor tightness. The race days involved 5:30 am start for breakfast and rider prep involving mostly supportive taping to shoulders, knees, ankles, wrists and blisters. Then from 8am the day was spent driving from checkpoint to checkpoint to further manage the riders injuries during the day before getting back to the finish. Post race at the hotel was hands on therapy and guidance through mobility drills. This was completed from 4pm through to 10pm each day over the six day event. I honestly loved every single minute and regained so much passion for physiotherapy. As time consuming as volunteer work can be, I would highly recommend it because the experience is invaluable, it gives you motivation to be better as a practitioner and feels good to get outdoors and amongst the action. IMAGES COURTESY OF: Motorcycling Australia www.ma.org.au Motocross: Injured your knee? Torn your ACL? You do not need an ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) to live a normal life or race a motorbike. Just ask some of the top Australian motocross riders. Todd Waters (Crankt Protein Honda Racing) ruptured his ACL this year while racing in the New Zealand motocross championship and only realised the following day. Kirk Gibbs (KTM Racing Team) ruptured his mid way through the championship last year, as did Caleb Ward (Husqvarna 8Biano Racing) – just to name a few. It is common practice in Australia and around the world for athletes to rush off and have a ACL reconstruction without being fully informed of their options. The ACL ligament helps to stabilize the knee especially when we change directions while standing on the leg. It is vital in sports that require rapid change of direction and pivoting such as football and basketball. When it comes to riding a motorbike whether it be trail riding, racing motorcross, supercross, offroad or even fmx at the elite level you don’t need to pivot so you don’t need an ACL. A common belief is that you will have ongoing issues or the knee will degenerate faster without surgery. This is simply not the case; research shows that long term no there is no difference in quality of life or knee damage, suggesting any long term damage is a result of the initial injury not due to repeated trauma. The main factor that affects the outcome is how strong your leg is, not the type of graft or type of surgery. If you are motivated to do the regular gym strengthening and stability exercises required to maintain muscle bulk and control, then you will have better long term outcomes. This is regardless of whether you have reconstruction surgery or not. Another misconception I see regularly even at the national championships is riders believing that riding the bike is enough to strengthen their leg following surgery or injury. To protect an injured area you need to continue to build strength well beyond that required to just ride a bike as you need to be strong enough to handle dabbing the foot, over jumping or tucking the front. It’s not about being strong enough to ride a bike but resilient enough to handle a crash. Short term No Surgery You can generally ride 7-14 days after the injury if required. Ideally a six week period would be preferred to allow the joint to settle and the regain muscle strength and control. Last year Kirk Gibbs raced just 2 weeks after rupturing is ACL at round 6 of mx nationals to keep his chances of back to back championships alive, with a 4,2 result in the mud at Conondale. Caleb Ward in 2015 raced 3 weeks after rupturing his 2nd ACL, that’s right he doesn’t have an ACL in either knee, returning to a 1-1 result at Murray Bridge Mx nationals in 2015. Riders need to understand that an ACL deficient knee will need continued gym based strengthening to maintain strength and limit instability episodes while riding. This should be part of any normal training program even if you haven’t injured your knee. If an instability episode does occur while riding, it is often reported to cause pain for less than a lap or 2. Surgery There are different types of surgeries all with different reported benefits, however it is important to realize that graft strength is not a factor in re injury muscle strength and control are. No matter which type of surgery you get, 9-12 months of rehabilitation is required prior to racing to reduce risk of re injury back to similar levels as pre rupture. for you to limit the risk of reinjury back to somewhere close to what it was prior to injury you would need. Returning earlier places you at high risk of tearing the graft, or pulling the anchor screw out of your tibia( leg bone) into the knee joint requiring surgery to remove the screw and a bone graft to plug the hole. This has happened to both Blake “Bilko” Williams and more recently Sam Martin. Compare that to a young 15 year old Jack Simpson who took the whole season off, actually almost 14 months, to rehabilitate before returning to racing and hasn’t had any issues since. Long term Having the reconstruction may reduce your chance of future meniscal tears but it does not improve long term function anymore than adequate rehabilitation. Nor does it reduce the risk long term of osteoarthritis in the knee. There is occasionally people who do an adequate rehabilitation program, however after 3 months are experiencing intermittent “giving way” episodes during their daily life that I would then recommend to go get the reconstruction. This is rare in the athletic population. I, with help from others, have also developed over the years a supportive taping specific for ACL injuries that gives you extra security under their knee braces without restricting your movement. This taping makes you feel more stable in the early stage, when riding with swelling still. In my opinion there have unfortunately been many riders in the past who have missed opportunities and spent months out of the sport because they have had ACL reconstructions without being fully aware of their options. Bilko had multiple ACL reconstructions on each knee missing countless months on the bike and missing major international competitions. Since last rupturing the grafts and being fully informed he does not have ACLs in either knee and continues to perform at freestyle shows around the world. When he does have a crash or a instability incident, there is less damage than if he had a graft, as high compression is not developed prior to the graft or ligament rupture, the bones simply slid out and in. Don’t get me wrong this can be quite painful and not ideal for a health knee, however majority of the time swelling takes 2-7 days to settle and pain is only momentary. Prior to Kirk Gibbs fracturing his femur he reported one episode of pain while riding which was 2 weeks after the rupture, pain lasted less than half a lap and he didn’t feel it again that day. With respect to riding a motorbike especially motocross and offroad even a minor medial collateral ligament sprain will give a rider more issues for a longer period than an ACL will. Key points You do not need an ACL to ride or race a motorbike There is minimal/ no long term benefits of surgery versus an adequate rehabilitation and maintenance gym program. You can get the ACL reconstruction at any point, like the end of the season if it is giving the rider symptoms.

  • MODERN ENDURO Mike Lafferty
    MODERN ENDURO ary Enman, a 15-year-old hare scrambles racer from Bangor, Pa., admits that he wasn’t sure what to expect when he started enduro racing. “For the most part, I didn’t have any idea what I was doing when I lined up for my first enduro,” says Gary, who decided to try the national enduros when he was just 13 years old. “My younger brother, Neil, and I were looking for something different. Our dad used to ride traditional time-keeping enduros, so we decided to give enduros a try. It wasn’t that hard to transition into.” The Enman brothers say their parents are their pit crew, but their dad hopes to ride with them next year. On occasion, the boys get to ride on the same row, and that adds to the camaraderie-building experience. “The enduros have a great community vibe,” Neil says. “It’s like being part of a huge family. Someone is always there to One Of help when you need it.” While racing is the main focus of the weekend, the Enman Motorcycling’s brothers say they enjoy camping, hanging out with their race friends and checking out the terrain. They also try to Oldest Disciplines, experience something local to the race location, whether it’s seeing a national landmark or eating at a local restaurant.

  • When Did Enduro Competitions First Start? Motorcycles Specifically
    When did Enduro competitions first start? Motorcycles specifically intended for enduro competition first appeared at the International Six Day Trial (ISDT) now called the International Six Days Enduro (ISDE). The ISDE was first held in 1913 at Carlisle, England. The ISDE requires an enduro motorcycle to withstand over six days and upwards of 1250 km (777 miles) of competition; repairs are limited to those performed by the rider with limited parts. The ISDE has occurred annually, apart from interruptions due to World War I and World War II, at various locations throughout the world. The early events were a test of rider skill and motorcycle reliability. The earliest ISDE courses used the dirt roads common in that era. Today, most of the routes are off-road. In 1980, the ISDT was renamed the International Six Day Enduro (ISDE). Scottish Six Days Trial The Scottish Six Days (Open Reliability) Trial is an internationally recognized motorcycle competition, which has been running since 1909 (with breaks for the two world wars) making it the oldest motorcycle trials event in the world. Motorcycle riders from all over the world compete in this extreme sport, covering as much as 100 miles a day on road and off-road routes around Lochaber on each of the six days. The event is a trial of the skill, consistency and endurance of the riders, as well as a test of the specialized motorcycles used. Photos above were taken at Scottish 6 days trial 1955 Section A Scottish 6 Day Trial 1955 When was the first Dirtbike Invented? The first motorcycles were produced by companies like Indian, Harley, BSA, and Norton.
