I'll hopefully get my bike started tonight and be a little closer to being ready to race next week, fingers crossed all is well.

Are any other KR's due out with us?

my engine let go down the back straight. I was flat out in top and the rear locked. I couldn't do much about it, as soon as I hit the clutch the bike threw me off at the club hairpin and I slid all the way as far as school.

I think MJ was watching his daughter at the time, so had a good view of the crash.

When I hit the deck, I landed on my left wrist and I've done a fair bit of damage.

I should still see you at Cadwell albeit watching and drinking, but my season is over, but I'm a tough lad and I'll be back next year :)

x-ray and hand photo to come soon, so don't scroll down too far if you are a bit squimish.

you know me, nothing I can't handle, my biggest problem is me. after my bones heal, I need to rehabilitate my ligaments. on the bright side, it was my left, so I can still do my favourite things with my right :)
