    Terrible accident at Patetonga (2 March)

    Hey guys

    Was riding today with Chris & Karl Power + Caleb Van Dragt testing the new KXF250 + KXF450's at the Patetonga MX Track

    I had finished my jam on the 450(absolute beast of a bike) and it was now Fraser Daveys turn for the test. He does all the photography/editting for the DRD/Bike Rider magazine.

    He was coming over one of the smaller tabletops and some how he stuck the throttle on and pinned it hard into a large bank.

    (Details removed)

    He was concious throughout the whole thing.
    Will let you know more details later.

    When you speak to him, say Michelle sends her best wishes (I used to work with him).
    Please let us know how he's doing.

    Missing details were details of the injury. Nasty has decided to remove those, and please respect her judgement on that.
    It will take some time to heal, and for those that didn't read the injuries, Fraser can explain them if he wants at a later date and I hope Vazza can get the images out of his mind.
    Again, best wishes to Fraser.
