Grub takes on/off the Rimis

[phoenixgtr]

Sheesh!! Bugger mate. Get well quick

[Nasty]

Wow .. huge kudos to Dave at kiwibike getting me sorted ... the bike is not in the hondaland of motomart for assessment and bandages ... and Grub is on another couch ... oh well looks like he can't make lunch on Wednesday .. but I'll be there

[Fatjim]

That was one mean dent in the tank. Did you do that with your head?

Which head? No scratch that - not sure i want to know...

[Nasty]

Shit it is neverending ...

Been at A&E all night and it appears that he has broken something in his elbow and a break in his thumb .. now got to go back in the morning to get a good cast on for a week so that he can then be assessed for how to deal with this little breakage.

Oh well off to bed.

Ahhh bugger!

Take it easy Brett and good luck with everything.

Don't take this the wrong way OK BUT - Later - when everything is a bit less raw you might want to start a thread about accident scene management based on the actual event. I'd value your insight and I think it would be useful to others.

I was not there - I know nothing other than whats been posted and so it is very easy to blah blah about it but I would be really interested in hearing your thoughts on how you felt and what you did and if you would (with the benifit of experience) do things the same way again.

I've been on a few 1st aid courses and had to use that a few times in road accidents (reminds me - I'm very rusty - must do a course) and I found it interesting how i reacted differently every time. Only a couple of times have i done a reasonably good job - rest of the time the sudden 'being involved' slightly over came my good judgement.

But thats for another day...

Rest up and see you out there soon...

now THAT is a good idea..!!!!!!

i am sure that there were better ways, for you, to stop him from sucking his thumb....

Bugger...that sh*t sucks. Sound like recouperation will take a while.

[Paul in NZ]

Oh poohs! Thats a step backwards but ultimately will bring about a better recovery result. Keep onwards chaps - chin up and all that stuff..

[sels1]

Bugger, Grub. All the best mate.
Cheers Nasty for the update

[Lissa]

Look after yourself Nasty, and I hope Grub gets well soon! Good to see you at the lunch today.

[roogazza]

good to hear that Grub is okay. So no more hooning it on the takkas..it's not a race track!!!!

The hooning is always risk , and lets face it, we all have a crack at it ! But I do wish some of the less experienced riders on this site would just take time to learn more about riding before "doin the hill" !!!!! Its a very dangerous place. Gaz. (jesus did I say that ?)

[Toaster]

Sorry to hear of the off, it's an interesting ride that road to say the least. Get well soon!

It is a shame with Uncle B's death we don't seem to have had the newbie rides of last summer, when nervous riders on mostly 250's were gently led over the hill for the first time. With experienced riders front and back to guide and help. He truly was a legend in that dept, lots of Welly riders went over the hill for the first time under his patient guidance.
RIP

Seriously - This capacity still exists and will be repeated upon request!
