Due to a late arrival and opting for a motel, then turning up late in the morning and farting about only to realise that the race had started, i missed the usual social aspect of this ride.

For those who know me, I'm back! For those who don't, I had a nasty accident in Canberra on the APEC long weekend early in September. I thought I was 21 again and tried a jump that might have been a little above my limits.

Anyway, after a week in Canberra hospital, a broken left arm and a real bugger of a dislocation with ripped tendons, nerves and muscle in the right (so painful I didn't even realise I'd broken the left!) I've been recovering slowly and still haven't got full movement back in the right arm.

Has anyone written on this site whilst racing? Yes... You heard it right. Technically im racing my bike as i speak. In reality im sat in my car waiting for matt to complete his first two laps of the killingworth 8 hour race. So, i have my number on my bike and im part of a two man race team and the start gun has gone off so technically speaking im racing! More roving reports as the day goes on, watch this space.
