David Johnson could be forced to miss the final Bennetts British Superb🙈ike round of the season at Brands Hatch after injuring h🧸is hand in a mountain biking accident.

The Maxxis Honda rider has fractured the fifth metatarsal in his right-hand after coming off his mountain bike during training for the se🌃ason finale.

Coming a year after he was forced to miss the last round of the 2007 season when h🦹e broke several bones and damaged his vertebrae in an acci𓂃dent on the Stars of Darley Moor, Johnson had decided not to attend that meeting this year, only for him to get injured doing something else.

He will undergo a medical checꦅk at Brands Hatch before deciding whether he will be able 🌠to compete.

"Part of my fitness routine is going off-road mountain biking. Last week I slipped off and broke a bone in my hand. The team did not attend Darley Moor this year (due to other commitments) but it lo𝔍oks like lightening has struck twice."

"I am off to the medical centre before free-practice (Friday) for an injection, so hopefully, it will be alright and not affect me too much. Having missed out on the final round last year, I am dete꧒rmined to be at Brands and see the season through."
