Saturday, July 14, 2012 | 6:05 PMJust days after losing fill-in rider Tommy Weeck to a broken tibia and fibula, Star-Valli Rockstar Yamaha was dealt another blow in the first moto at Millville when Gareth Swanepoel jumped into a lapper and suffered a broken leg as a result. Swaenpoel tweeted the following moments ago:
