Went and visited young Mr Crocket last night - the nurses on ward were astonished at how many visitors he'd had already.   ;D

He's in good spirits, even if still a little groggy.  Looks like he'll be there for another couple of weeks though. 

He's done some pretty serious damage, and is up for at least one operation to repair his pelvis..

As for hassling the ###### out of forum followers - he doesn't have a laptop yet, although I hear one is coming!  Be afraid gentlemen, be very afraid...   ::)

Must be a bit of this pelvis thing getting about.
Trevor Anthony of the Vic sidecar dynasty also has damaged his pelvis whilst crashing in SA at an ASA meet.
Trevor has had some blood clotting issues and has just come out of ICU. He is being air lifted back to Vic to recover.

Lord help the forum once you get a laptop  ;D ;D  Maybe you will have time to write your memoirs  ;)
Looking for YZ250C parts NOS if possible

I hope you weren't on one of the yamahas John. If you have any of those big green cigars left over I know Bill is always on the lookout. Hope the op goes well John and you have a speedy recovery.
If at first you dont succeed, give up and drink beer

its worse than i thought  :o spoke to joan tonight and it appears his accident happened riding his Hindenberg not a VMX bike . Poor buggers in traction as they have to straighten /alighn his Femur before they can repair his hip. Typical Joan though he was in good spirits and more concerned about other peoples bikes in his shop for repair .

Sounds like he has had a good stream of visitors and well wishers , hes got a laptop thanks to a friend and should be online soon .

If your local call in to the QA and see John  :)

Hey Vaughan your turn to step up to the plate now and help out with track work with those sort of comments .
We had been working all day pulling up big rocks, towing around the new club plough to flatten out what ruts and bumps we could. D/c found another rock but was to late by then,He will be missed at the track but be shure once he is up and about he will have a front row seat over looking everything ! He wants plenty of pics from this weekend from anyone taking a camera . ;D
My fastest lap is the first one :)
