Re: Gil Down
I saw it in fat bikes uk...I'll try and copy and paste some details..I'm not sure it will work as it's members only to view?
I know Saltyman posted this in there...salty if your around could you update and i hope you don't mind me posting this? anyway this is what I saw
I know a few folk have been trying to get in touch with Gil recently.....
He's had no Internet and last night had a crash on the bike and is now in hospital, so just to let you know if you can't get in touch.
Looks like he has a fractured skull.... Undecided will keep you updated.
after a bit more gil pops in
Thanks for the good wishes guys
Still stuck in hospital but I surrounded by women in nurses uniforms so it can't all be bad
Stupid accident as they always are, on road hack bike after no more than a couple of beers at the pub with a mate to have a stick jump in the front wheel and lock it straight up - head/ground 30km you can guess the rest
To make things worse and totally my own fault I didn't have a helmet on, but to be honest the injuries are all facial and below helmet line, still no excuse...
Outcome is fractured skull and nose bridge, 2 very black eyes and heavy gravel rash to face, oh and chipped tooth, lots of fun drugs and so far 4 days in hospital
Guess that's the modelling career over for a while
Cheers guys
so in case some of you wondered where gil is and why he hadn't contacted you back..it seems ..he was looking at nurses..get well chap
