best wishes/speedy recovery Ravenrider.
Just goes to show you need to be carefull out there even on familiar trails & always tell someone where you are going. (god I sound old)
 
Thanks guys I just cant believe racing for all those years and having loads of crashes. ...this has been my worst by far...just when I was getting back into it
 
Awesome stuff Kim,

Thanks for that, some famous/infamous names there, I missed out at Blandford after 92 as I went to Uni up in London and did cross for a while instead.

Welcome to the forum :)
