Done it again.
« on: March 09, 2008, 12:57:01 PM »

Had a big crash in practice at the BUSA's this weekend and I've broken my right collarbone, 3months after having the plate taken out of my left.

First race back and i'm out for a while again.  Off to see the specialist this week to see whether or not i'll need another op.

I'll put a pic of the x-ray up later.  I'm so gutted and upset I can't really put it into words.

Cheers mate!  Umm the berm after the bridge, I went to put a pedal stroke in, my feet both got blown off the pedals.  Thought I'd held it but then I hit the deck HARD at pretty high speed as you can imagine!

From looking at the bike, it looks like the mech hanger bent and the mech stripped the threads out of it, throwing it in to my back wheel, making it lock up and causing the bike to buck me off!

bloody hell dan not again  Undecided not a good start to the 2008 season , i know what its like to be off the bike for a while due to injury to i can empathise with how you feel , get better buddy and get the bike fixed so you can get out riding as soon as your healed up , and get on the turbo trainer if yo have one to keep fit
