Update as of tues night

Still in hospital doing it tough. 6 broken ribs, busted clavicle, punctured lung, blood and fluid in pleural cavity and a concussion that would kill a brown dog. Plus he missed today’s epic ride and isn’t lining up for tommorows either. Likely to be in hospital for another week. Fukin sook

Farq polly that sucks arse get well soon. Man those ribs are going to be touchy.

[Jeffrey SmithMember]

Oooh, 6 broken ribs! never broken a rib but bruised them pretty good one time, very uncomfortable just to move.

Heal well old fella.

Man Polly, mickD’s expression ‘smash some singles/ trails’ is just an expression, you’re not actually supposed to smash the trail! :dry:

You really did a good job!

Hope recovery goes well! And is sooner than later.

Here’s to a speedy recovery Polly. Watch snowy he will be looking to steal your bike, he has always wanted a good bike.

[Gordon McMillanMember]

Hi Polly,

A big effort,
Hope the bikes OK, :dry: the ribs will mend :sick:
It must of been some hit :pinch: it highlights why its risky to ride solo.

Good luck with your recovery, I dont think it will be much fun.

O yeah, Thank for the bed on south coast ride……

Cheers Gordon

When kato riders come off they do it well, you mad bugger.

Jeezus old fella!! Done a good job on yourself, all the best for a speedy recovery. Try not to cough, sneeze , laugh or bear down too hard when taking a dump!

[Adrian SnowdenMember]

Pol is being allowed to go home today although he may be pretty fd after the six hour trip. He is still vague in the head but it’s difficult to say how much more than normal.

[PeterMember]

Thanks Snowy for your unbaised updating of my present status.

Adam LC , I think at this point I will be a non starter for the south coast ride.:
:huh: :huh:
Thankx all for the good recovery wishes. :silly: :silly: :silly:
I think a 3 month holiday will be in line

Cheers
Polly

Hey Polly really bad shit!!

good to know I’m not the only one

I had 6 broken and stuff sucked out

( thankfully no shoulder damage )

that was start of Nov, 3 months is right

I had never done any kind of painkillers before this

Oxycontin is the stuff

don’t want to go back there

Other people have had rib injuries (me too minor cracks, cartilage)

but crushing one side I’ve learned is really bad!!!!!

I hope that I can catch up after healing time

ribs may not straighten up but they will heal !

We will have lots to talk about

[GregMember]

No good Polly :pinch: Hope you are on the mend mate,sing out if you need anything to pass the time. Books, movies etc
