About 3 weeks ago i was out dirtjumping and um well basicly i crashed. Last jump on a 10pack first run of the day in the pooring rain haha. Dunno what happened, i think i went up a didgy side of the lip and the front end just dropped straight after it. Landed straight onto my head and shoulder and front fliped onto my arm.

Hurt like hell but i thought i was gonna be ok. Manged to walk to the car and tried to drive but couldnt. Got my dad to pick me up and he took me to A&E.

Once i was booked in or what ever u call it the nurse came to look at me. Old bitch diddnt even talk to me much, just said oh you have fallen of your bike oh dear, i told her i couldnt move my left side arma nd she wallked away. 6 hours later ! I was taken to see a doctor who when i explained i fell 5 ft onto my head had some kind of fit sent me to xray and found out i fractured my shoulder and elbow. 8 hours later i left A&E with a sexy slign and the smallest pain killers i have ever seen!

Bascily hospitals are abit of a joke and i cant move my arm. Even tho im alot betgter now still hurts, i diddnt even wanna ride that day i was dragged out haha! 

Bad luck Rob at least when your getting better.

And moral of the story for Andy, easy don't play football hehe 

Hehe sorry man, just had to be said 

it really bugs me when you crash pretty bad and you go to hosp or to the docs and say you crashed on your bike and try to explain what its like and you can just see that they are thinking of cruising around hopping off curbs on little bikes and just see you as an exagerator

thats why i like these specialist medical services, they know the deal

No damage done there then


Maybe cliff richard could come along and sing "congratulations" to you

hospitals are cunning! i was once went in after a drinking session because my side hurt and i kept chucking up lol, bloody hospital sent me home, then an hour later i called for an ambulance, and they just ignore my calls saying im drunk! ( by this time ive chucked everything up and in agony!) anyway so i go in the morning, they keep me in overnight said im constipated! then they sent me home, came back 2 hours later with more pain! then they say my kidneys are shagged, then they decide its my liver, send me home with some kidney pills



i return 2 hours later ina ambulance, straight into surgery with a severly inflammed appendix, on the verge of bursting!


moral is, hospitals are not only slow they are f'ing thick too 

if you have a bad MTB accident just tell the woman on the front you cam eoff a crosser. they see you immediately!!
