VOLUME 59 ISSUE 18 MAY 3, 2022 P33 cut the corner a bit, and it was full of tumbleweeds, so riding up I just didn't even see it ... like I didn't even know it was coming, because you just see flat, basi- cally. But I was going pretty slow to make the turn, so I just nosed in to it and then flipped over, and then I get up and see Taylor was limping away so, I'm assuming that's where [Robert's crash] happened." Robert's injuries were signifi- cant. "Taylor sustained abdomi- nal trauma that required surgery, as well as a fractured foot," Robert's wife, Stephanie, later reported. "Doctors were able to repair everything internally. He will remain in the hospital for sev- eral days but is recovering." It was an exciting race for the Women's pro class. Red Bull GoPro JCR Honda racer Tarah Gieger made a surprise visit in what was only her fifth-ever NHHA. Gieger has been enjoy- ing family time after having a baby a year ago but decided to not only come out, but to race, as well. She finished second just 22 seconds behind Britney Gal- legos, who pushed hard on her Husqvarna FC 250 for the win, and a mere six seconds ahead of third-place finisher Ava Silvestri, aboard her 3 Bros./Kilmartin charged GasGas. When the dust had settled just 28 seconds separated these three Pro-class women. In the 250 Pro class, a fired-up Corbin McPherson finished an impressive fourth overall aboard his Husqvarna FC 250, com- ing in nearly two minutes ahead of second-place finisher Carter Klein. Rounding the 250 Pro podium was DC Yamaha racing's Robby Schott, who was thrilled to see his first podium of the 2022 season. Mary Rinell OVERALL 1 Dalton Shirey (Hus) 2. Joe Wasson (Bet) 3.
