Unhappy Off the road for a while

Well I've had a fun couple of days.

In an attempt to lose a bit of weight playing football on Sunday evening I've gained extra courtesy of wires and plaster around my elbow. For some reason it didn't like my 15st landing on it at speed and decided to snap in two.

Still on the bright side I get some time off work

Dude, that's a bit of a drastic measure to get out of the Shire meets.

Yeah I know, but don't worry i'll be back on the bike as soon as possible after the plaster comes off.

I will definately make it to the Shire hopefully in about 8 weeks.

The whole leg-breaking bit of the TVSF initiation only counts if you do it on a bike, you know.

I'm quite impressed by my TT-racing mate. He stacked his souped up 10R at the weekend and left himself with two broken legs, a broken foot and a broken jaw. Oops.
