Yep, that was me guys...I highsided into the armco on OPH.
I haven't had the pleasure of meeting any of you fine folk but thanks for all the well wishes, it means a lot.
Back at home after 9 days at RNSH. 1 broken vertebre, 2 fractured vertebre, 3 broken ribs, a bruised lung and a bruise on the brain.
2 rods and 8 screws in my back for the next 6-9m. I can walk but only a few meters before I have to sit down, lots of physio and rehabilitation to come.
In a lot of pain and discomfort but extremely lucky to come out of this without paralysis and only a tiny graze on my hip due to wearing full gear.
Unfortunately, that is it for me and riding, I have put my family through hell in the last week and it would be selfish of me to continue riding. Besides, next time the Dr's say I will not be so lucky...
Thanks again.
Ryan

All the best Physio takes a while but just take your'e time.
