Default Spies Retires from Racing

Former World Superbike champion and MotoGP race winner Ben Spies has announced his retirement from racing.

The American has made just two race starts this season due to serious shoulder injuries stretching back to last October's Malaysian round.
Very sad day. Not good to see injury stop someone in the meat of their career... You see these guys take so many hard slams week in and week out, and just get back up. You forget sometimes that these guys are human and aren't invincible...

If I was a betting man, I'd say it was a retirement from Ducati.
