Ouch!
Well guys it was an incredible day and would have ended in sheer bliss despite the early drenching, if I had not committed that one very painful unforced error.
It was a classic case of lapsed concentration, eyes off the line for a micro-second and coming to grief on 3/4 inch gravel.
The Rivet jacket ripped like paper, the armourless summer gloves disintegrated, helmet face destroyed, jeans.... well you know the rest.
Medically very very lucky, no broken bones, grazed, bruised, battered and torn.
Bike looks bad but nothing that a few grand won't fix.
I would like to thank all those who went out of their way to offer sympathy and help and in particular the two boys from Geelong who offered their ute to take me and my baby home.
Don't even know your names guys, but I was humbled by your caring and generosity.
I would also like to echo Volvi's comments about the tremendous effort that Richard and Jo contribute to this club. Good work!
Thank you all.
