Wow, thats a quick recovery - good job! Which vertebra?

I fractured c2 in November, fracturing the peg - what's known as a Hangman fracture. I'm still in a foam collar now, and have quite limited movement when removed. - shoulder checks won't be easy for a while thats for sure.

Sorry to hear of your injury. Mine in comparison was minor - it was L1 - it was a moderate crush fracture - tbh it was only picked up 2 weeks after the accident, diagnosis before that was muscle strain, but when it didn't recover I convinced them to Xray.

Get well soon!

Mr 996SPS missed his flight to Cartagena , Spain today, so like any sane person he's decided to under take a 1,600ish mile ride down on the VFR, I think he has the chunnel booked for 1am tomorrow morning, safe trip mate!

I've been thinking about heading out around Essex but don't know the area at all. Know any good routes?

I hope he's checked the stator/regrec/starter wiring on it first.

Just that I have a tendency to fiddle about with my photos and make them worse than the originals biggrin Wasn't a dig at anyone else.
