Looks like I have this Forking thing as well, I noticed a sore throttle hand/wrist when on my roadie after only half an hours riding holding a steady throttle,pins & needles in bed at night,no grip strength etc,etc, I now realise it has been affecting my dirt biking not being able to stay out on the track for too long,Crap >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(

Anybody know of some good exercises/stretches etc to stave off the inevitable carve up for as long as possible :)

that sounds like "trigger finger" husky,mate i play tennis with has that problem too,smallest finger cramps up & won't release,think his doc suggested cutting something, he wasn't keen on getting it done (so far), :P
work,the curse of the racing class!!
if a hammer dosn't fix it,you have a electrical problem!!

I've had a "trigger finger" fixed Frank. It's a simple day surgery thing where they release the tendon which is getting caught on something where it runs.. A small nip in your hand & it's all good. I'm really glad I got mine done, even though it wasn't a huge problem it was very annoying having to flick my finger open all the time. Not a bad party trick though.
Cheers,
K
