#wheeliewednesday on the @yamahamotorusa XSR900 during an @araiamericas @araihelmetjapan helmet launch. It was a great time and a fantastic helmet!!

Riding the new @yamahamotorusa R6. It was awesome and a honor to be apart of the small group to launch this new bike. Five years ago I would of never thought I would be a "factory rider". It's been an up and down road but the fight in me is burning hotter than ever.

@amaproflattrack Daytona Short Track 2016. Had a lot of fun this year. TT next year? I've liked TTs in the past. Been going to Daytona since 2008, might make the trip in 2017. @team95racing @yamahamotorusa 450.

Well step one of the injury is taken care of thanks to #drbryan and @dmleisner @aleisner for letting us stay at their house to recover. Now step two of recovery thanks to @gamereadyofficial for getting me dialed in along with @joshday64 for the machine. Never have been down and out like this but it will make the fight for the come back that much sweeter.

It's going to be awhile before I can put my @nextmotochampioncycling @nextmotochampion cycling kit on and go for a bicycle ride!

Well not the trip we were all hoping for. But I'm a true professional now because I've had an off-season training injury. I can't thank everyone enough who has helped me these past couple of days. @davisfisher67 and @the_flying_tomato stopped their trip to make sure I could get to the airport and kept me laughing the whole time. @kerrigm95 for dropping everything to get me to California for surgery. @jakezemke and #bobmoore for getting everything setup with Dr. Bryan and even @delta for making the trip smooth. Not the way I wanted to spend my birthday tomorrow but we'll be back stronger. Thank you to everyone that has helped and checked in on me.

Guess what!! It's only October and @motoamerica is on it. Already have the 2017 schedule. Put the dates on your calendar to come out and watch us do battle!!

About The Ethan Gillim Chasin’ A Dream Foundation: The Ethan Gillim Chasin’ A Dream Foundation was started after Ethan passed away in a racing incident in 2007. Ethan was related to 2006 MotoGP World Champion Nicky Hayden, and before he passed, Ethan said he wanted to be a world champion like Nicky. Ethan also wanted to help up-and-coming riders, which is why we started the foundation and Team95. Our goal is to fit kids who are racing motorcycles with the best possible safety gear and help them improve their riding skills.

Having some fun during the @araiamericas helmet launch. The @yamahamotorusa XSR900 was a blast riding for two days. I got to meet and put some faces with names with some great people. Video credit to @seanmacd @cycleworld

Out here in California doing some street bike riding on a @yamahamotorusa for the launch of two new @araiamericas helmets. They are great!!

Team work makes the dream work. Another season in the books with @yamahamotorusa YES @gravesport @yamalubeusa we had another great season and can't wait to run the 95 again. My crew @mikecanfield #woo @reese11r1 @khcoaching will be working as hard as me to get the #1 back. #Team95

It's been a fun and crazy season with @motoamerica some ups and downs but a lot of learning. Coming up 4 points short is a tough pill to swallow but I know my crew and I put in 100% and left it all on the track. @garrettgerloff rode great all year and did an awesome job. I'll have my beloved number 95 back on my bike next year and looking to get the 1 back.

One more from turning some laps out at #SunsetDowns had to do some showing off at the end of the day when @wellsie99b was snapping some pictures. (at Sunset Downs)

Another good day in the office at #SunsetDowns burning some laps on the @team95racing @yamahamotorusa YZ450F with the crew. @the_flying_tomato @bradthebullet @rogerhayden95 @85jakelewis @nickmcfadden18 photo credit: @wellsie99b (at Sunset Downs)

Can't believe Ethan would of been 20 today. Miss him everyday and I'm glad to be running the number 95 for him. He touched the hearts of so many people and I'm happy we can continue to honor him with @team95racing we miss you buddy!!

Another clip from short tracking today at the @team95racing compound but this time on-board with @rogerhayden95 spinning laps with @bradthebullet @85jakelewis
