Biker Down - Our Pres
Evening all
It rather pains me to have to say this, our Pres, Slob, had an off last week and whilst he’s still in the land of the living, he is rather beaten up with 9 cracked ribs, a fractured L1 vertebrae with three further vertebrae showing cracks and a knee that’s pretty well b*ggered. No surgery required on the back injuries (but he’ll need a brace for a few months) but he’s scheduled to have his knee repaired next week. He’s currently in hospital in Oxford. I’m sure he’ll be along at some point to tell us the details but in the meantime I’m sure we all wish him a speedy recovery Ped PS - if anyone has forum issues let me know, Rob normally sorts out techy stuff but I’ll see if I can help

Oh No Rob!!! Sounds like a major prang!
Not on the ride home from Geoff's funeral by any chance?

Dam Slob - I'm sorry to read this. It sounds like you are a bit roughed up so I hope your treatment goes well and that the nurses take good care care of you.
I hope you are back up and about and feeling better soon.

C’mon Slob: it’s only a flesh wound!
But get well quickly and we expect a full photo documentary of the rebuild [With bins].
