Took a tumble - I'm out for a bit

Post by **pch1** » 16 Aug 2015, 08:29

Hello my little NorthWest monkey bikers.

I'll not be riding for a bit as I took a tumble at E-Scape (electric off road centre) on Saturday afternoon and damaged my knee, ribs, shoulder and wrist. Went to hospital and given crutches after all the examinations and x-rays, but booked in again on Tuesday for a scan on my knee with suspected ligament and cartledge damage.

It was a low seed spill, coming out of a left hand berm, left leg out, front wheel slid out, caught it with the left leg to hold it up, accelerated, back end swung round and then flicked back inline as I shut the throttle and was promptly spat off high side style
