[Headbanger]

Fuck, How is he?

Someone one better tell me he's alright.

[NighthawkNZ]

Last I heard he's is drugged up on pain killers... He doesn't really remember the accident or what happened...

[davereid]

Bummer, nice guy, get well soon dude.

[Headbanger]

Broken vertebrae in his neck, a few other injuries. Sounds like his head took a mean mean impact.

Seems he leaves Hospital today so he may show up here sometime.

[Swoop]

Serious bummer Winston.
Hope the recovery goes swiftly and with a full recovery!

Best regards.

[chanceyy]

speedy recovery Winston

[Pussy]

Wishing Winston a speedy recovery

[Ixion]

Someone two to wit ?

(I think the gentleman learned in law would appreciate that )

[Trudes]

Speedy recovery Winston, I enjoy reading your posts also, so hope the head is ok and up to debate soon. :)

[martybabe]

Top bloke, heal quick Winston mate. :doctor:

[McJim]

I believe he's getting home tonight - he's certainly full of banter.

There was a bit of discusion at the time of the crash about starting a thread but I remebered unhelpful fuckwit comments being made about my wife when she binned my Ducati and thought Winston should be spared that kind of irritation.

I rode the same piece of road about half an hour before Winston binned and it was treacherous with ice, moss and pea gravel. I therefore believe Winston was just unfortunate.

If I ever bin the LAST place I want it discussed is here - believe me.

Speedy recovery Winston ,we don't bounce as well as we did when we were younger.

[NighthawkNZ]

Update
He has been discharged today, still sore, but will be resting at home for the next couple of weeks...

[Winston001]

Cheers and Thanks Everyone for you kind interest and concern. I finally made it home this afternoon a full 14 days after admission.

I'm exhausted so will post more detail later. Short story - no idea why I came off the bike -> head injury -> fractured C4 vertebrae -> temporary nerve damage (hopefully) -> torn right thumb ligament now stitched back together.

Arm in a sling, philadelphia collar for 6 weeks damn it but hey I'm alive. :D Thought processes a bit ropy but that will just take time.

Cheers
Winston

[shafty]

Very best wishes from Bahrain Winston, - and I hope you had a great discharge :wari:

[oldrider]

Thought processes a bit ropey but that will just take time. Cheers Winston

Hey Winston you're a lawyer, you all have ropey thought processes, at least that bit is still working OK! :niceone:

Nice to hear that you are back on your feet, hope the good news continues coming in! :yes:

It doesn't matter how you came off, it's how you get back on that counts! :doctor::ride::soon:

[Crisis management]

Good to hear you're ok Winston, look after yourself and get well!!!

Mending thoughts from the (mostly) winterless north.

[sels1]

Glad to hear you're out of hospital mate. Hope the next phase of recovery goes well.

[Patrick]

Sort out your workmate too, when you can....

"Old man doing young man stuff..." :lol:

Cheeky prick!

Whats he drive? Where does he live? :whistle:

[Kiwi Graham]

Sorry to hear about the off dude, speedy and full recovery wished for. Take care mate.

[Hinny]

Sad to hear of your mishap Winston.
May your recovery be swift.

It's a shame you can't take those auto morphine drips home with you to alleviate the pain.
