I think the 'Golden Tank' has found a new, and maybe permanent home.

Wow, great pictures for the mantel piece. Glad to hear you are on the mend but even happier to hear you are already fine about it and looking forward to getting back. Nice one. GWS both of you

Matt

i think we made eye contact in the holding area then that was about it tbh, you were a target for me and that's all!!



thanks to everyone for well wishes. it's a bit of a bummer and i feel angry with myself for the lowside which started it all off, but it can happen to anyone and I just have to be positive about getting back to health and fitness so i can ride my bikes again.

I could end up one of those people with a ducati that is a few years old and done hardly any miles..

All the best to both of you and hope you both have a speedy recovery, nice pictures for the family album.

Again not sure if we have met as I have only made Donnington this year on Rattlers old bike, No 44.

This is the first rear at DD and not started well, my mate Andy (SeelyG50) broke his femur/hip falling off a push bike, he will make his come back at Snetterton.

I am sitting with a broken leg and tendon/ligament damage to my ankle from trail riding in Wales last month!!!Hope to be back for Mallory next month.

Steve

Hope you’re both up and about soon, enjoyed a couple of chinwags at Anglesey and hope to catch you both at Oulton, if not before.

Fingers crossed Jon should be back at Oulton and will be on form!!

Unfortunately it looks like I won't be back to riding until much later in the year (fingers crossed all goes well) and it is unlikely I will be riding in DD again

Good to hear Jon's recovery isn't going to take to long, sorry to hear yours is going to take longer Lily.
DD will miss you I really enjoyed the battle we had at Oulton a couple of years ago, just get fit, get back on a bike and keep your chin up
