Nationals looking doubtful

[bluninja]

SVS sorry to hear about the stuffed collarbone and possibly missing the racing.
Whatever you decide, decide quickly. If you want to race and need the clavicle fixed...do it now. If you're going to wait around till next season, then move on with your plans for next season.

Damn, I thought this was gonna be a political slamming of National, I was just getting ready to attack Labour!!!

Sorry to hear SVS, maybe it's a good excuse to start planning a beach camping holoiday this year.

[svs]

well i'm going to go and try and find another doctor - esp. after what DP said. Whichever way it goes now - operation or wait and see. it'll be a close run thing for the nationals - they're only about 7 weeks away. reminder to self in the future - try not to break stuff when crashing.

[k14]

Thats actually 6 weeks, not 7.

P.S. You can't race a bike any good with a broken collarbone. I know because I tried. Ask Kickaha how that went

It went crap and I think it was just after that you went and got it looked at again found out it wasn't healing and it was operated on not to long after

[svs]

going to get another look tomorrow and see what happens. whatever it way it goes it looks like I probably won't be fit for the nationals down south anyway, so might have to give it a miss. However I already have a replacement rider lined up, so the bike may be there anyway.

[bistard]

Hey SVS,sorry to hear about the collar bone
So whos the replacement rider ?????
Are you flying in someone from overseas?
A ringin for F3 this year,the rumours start here!

[Clivoris]

You must have lost my number SVS. I still haven't received the call with the ride offer.
Definitely hassle the quacks about your bone mate. I'm no medico but I can't imagine how those bones are gonna get close enough to start healing without divine or medical intervention.

[svs]

off to see an orthopaedic surgeon soon (well january - jeeze they must take all of december off on holiday).

Choice of rider is not confirmed, but yes - recently flown in from overseas, international superstar to take on the ranks of F3 with a standard engine bike will have to wait and see.

Clive - you've got yourself a bike, you don't need mine. A nimble 400 should be good down south, but if this 'deal' doesn't work out then you're next on the list. get practicing.

[bistard]

Oh,dont tell me its going to be DOCTOR BOB!!!!
Delboy was telling me he was back

[GSVR]

May be of interest to you that your corner claimed another victim at the PMC meeting on Sunday. Was a guy on a Kawasaki 600 from Hamilton. Broken Clavical I was told. Isn't that like shoulderblade? Sounds like a similar kind of incident but caused by missing a downchange.

Just looked it up must be collarbone

[svs]

clavical is collar bone, scapula is shoulder blade. I broke both.
