Thankyou all for the best wishes (not happy jan) will still be going to support, tried to persuade the doctor to set my hand so I could grip the throttle but she wouldn't have a bar of it

Tell them you're going to represent your country-that'll at least baffle them for a while.

Hope its only a minor set back for you Steve.
Try a second opinion, but remember the cold of old England will chill you to your bones. ;D

You're kidding. You are not having a very good year are you odd1. Hope it heals quickly and you are back on the chair soon.
From Central QLD. ;)

Just heard that Odd1 fell off a bar stool at the Rooty Hill RSL on Sat night. He was telling the bar maid how he was an Aussie champ sidecar racer and the he was off to represent his country in an international extravaganza somewhere in England. It was her shout but our intrepid traveller lost control and crashed heavily before the 1st turn.
"Hoot-Just my fluck"-he was heard to mutter as they carried him off.

Very good EML there I was thinking I had got away with it! Am I still picking up your swing arm?
-
Lamas' dad has been onto them direct.
Apparently 'those that be in charge' are off away at the moment but to ring back at 5.00 o'clock thursday when somebody might help.
So, to cut the story short, we might have it under control, but stay tuned. It might be worth a visit down there to check out the place-could be good for a laugh at least.

He's done it again. Steve Baker good mate and alround good bloke has come to grief again, this time riding a quad on his property on 27th Dec on a steepish hill has rolled upside down and got his hand stuck under the roll bar and cut the end off his ring and middle finger's, they have managed to sew them back on so here's hoping everything work's out ok, he also damaged his little finger, at this stage he is in the Royal North Shore Hospital in Sydney. The sidecar is the only thing he has'nt fallen off so l think he should stick to that, poor bugger just does'nt seem to be having any luck with 2 or 4 wheels at the moment, any way best of luck mate and get well soon..
Popeye.

Geez Popeye, some of our bad luck is rubbing off on poor old Odd1
Cheers to you Oddy-get well soon -and keep your fingers out of where they shouldn't go eh boyo. All the best and have a Happier New Year.

Talked to Steve today and all is going well, he is going in tomorrow to get the stiches out and is already talking of riding again so he must be on the mend, here's hoping he can stay shiney side up for awhile ah.... :D :D

Talked to Steve again today and he is doing great, still got a plaster thingy on his middle finger and he has lost a couple of finger nails but pretty good otherwise.....
