The technique for Nelson in the wet is - Fast in, slide out (bike on side)

I hope you feeling better now, my little tumble there has been diagnosed as a fractured collar bone by a sprout eating belgian doctor today! Wicked!

It was fine on Sunday wasnt it? A little pain is good for concentrating the mind. Fast in.............faster out.

Well, I certainly got that technique right!

You must live in a posh part of the country to have Belgian Doctors!

Hope the fracture heals quick and you can do a Colin Edwards!
