Cheers Phil, i couldnt hear the pa where i was standing

There was a faller in the first sound of thunder race. He lay awfully still for ages. Anyone know if he's okay? Dont know what the bend is called but it was the right hander just after the spitfire.

That would be the Old Hairpin....I was in the grandstand on the start/finish straight .....didnt see any undue activity by the medical staff.

Two bikes went down. There were five or six of them working on him for a while before taking him away by ambulance. Didn't look like much of an accident to be honest. Its a bit scary when they dont get up afterwards!

That will be my mate Deano and another, Deano was already riding injured following a crash a couple of weeks ago at Pembrey where he broke his Ribs and Collarbone, smashed 2 fingers and broke a bit off his collarbone. In the crash today he rebroke the ribs and the collarbone. I popped along to see him after the first DD race along with my mate Mark Buldock, Deano was in good spirits but was obviously in a lot of pain his 998R didn't look to bad. He told us the other rider that had took him out was in a worse state.

Incidently Mark won both SoT races and in that first one he was out on slicks, hopefully he can repeat the wins tomorrow in the North Glos meeting there.

Oh and the 1st pic is of me and Number 45 Mark Foskett, who sneaked around the outside while I got held up by somebody else, still I got him back and put a bit of distance and a few riders inbetween us to make sure the cheeky rascal didn't do it again.

Yep, good pictures. Skids, sorry it was a friend of yours who has been hurt again. He obviously thinks he's got rubber bones. Hope he recovers quickly.

Thats the trouble he doesn't bounce as well as he used to when he was A LOT younger.
He didn't need to be out there on the day as his main goal for the weekend was to get more points in the North Glos SoT races on the Sunday and he was using the Saturday races as a warm-up/practice..

I see there are pics of me on the UKMOC board and although I can log in it will not allow me to post a reply as it comes up with
"skidlids, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Anyone know what I need to do to get around this.

Did I mention earlier both SoT races were won by Mark on the CSC DUCATI, still the twin to be racing in that class. Garry Smith was also out in the 2nd race after giving the first one a miss after going out on slicks and then pulling out after the first race stoppage that involved Deano as the conditions were dodgy at best. He is also contending the NG SoT championship with todays (Sunday) races being more important to him.
