That's a complete arse. The only positive is he is young and it will mend in 4-6 weeks

Nearly was. He thought he'd done that at first. But just scuffed and bruised

No break then? if not that's good news, I remember being young and being able to bounce quite well and shrug it off. Now if I look at something wrong my bodies out of action for days :lol:

the boy has a 'buckle fracture' as he's young the bones bend/distort rather than breaking. 3 weeks out of action in a split, no plaster.... That's not a bad result all things considered

Not much going on at the moment really, the boy has been resting his Radius apart from some roadie riding, which weirdly he really really seems to enjoy. He's been doing 50km rides mostly and getting a decent pace on.

We did go see Gee Atherton doing his talk which was cool, made even cooler as he won himself a pair of tyres.

Krypto Enduro soft, so they'll go nicely on something next year, although it may be my bike lol.
