I heard something about Beetle having a serious crash with his G14. Does someone know how he is?

Mr Roper has posted the news on the Wildguzzi forum.

Bloody bullshit, noone does really need this. Mark, all the best for You and a quick recovery.

Just read this to Kathi, whose response -- for someone she's never met except from my reading her posts and PM's here -- was tears! Sad

Keep us all posted, and she'll keep him (and Mike & others) in her prayers.

Thanks guys. Got 5 cracked ribs on the left, and busted right tib/fib. Got a titanium nail in it now. cheers

I had one cracked rib when I fell over in a fishing boat last year and that hurt like a bastard for months so max sympathy for you Mark.
Best of luck with your recovery mate.

Hi Mark,

Do get well. Just a note, make sure that the knee is checked out, sometimes it doesn't get the attention it might need and things only become obvious later.

best wishes

TITANIUM

I’ve got a titanium plate in my head. It doesn’t make me think faster, but it does make the head scans look sporty

GRiSO Posts : 6153 Join date : 2013-09-30

No roo.

Wombat? Chupacabra? Naked lady? That last one has nearly done me in a few times near the beach.

Bugga..hope you have a speedy recovery Mark

I winced hearing you'd taken a fall. Glad it's not worse. Give yourself time for old bones to bond properly.

So. What about the Orange beast ?

GRiSO Posts : 6153 Join date : 2013-09-30

Don't know. Will find out next week.

Biondino Posts : 296 Join date : 2016-12-20

I was thinking of you & your maps today; as I'm having fun out here in the Smoky mountain roads. Lots of curves after curves. Getting into a rythmn of set up, throttle off, throttle on. Trying to be smooth, trying to make it all flow. And cursing my own pennypinching ways for not getting one of your maps yet as the throttle response is so jerky ! And yes the TB's were balanced before the trip.
