aright dudes. im currently laid up in rochdale hospital after impaling myself on the bars of my absolut at lee quarry pump track. 4 " wound across my abdomen 25 staples and exposed a bit of my bowel. Not sure when ill get out or back on the bike.
I need to find some body armour to protect my stomch now (any tips).

ouch being impaled by a fairly blunt object must be mega painful,i hope you get better soon as its perfect weather to be out on the bike. You should certainly win the prizes in the magazine,maybe they will offer you a full set of armour when they see the extent of the wound  |

There was a couple of lads who told us the story. He said that some photo's had been taken. I saw you walking down from the pump track. Bet you wish you'd had a ride in that heli now don't you? What about something like this? http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?PartnerID=79&ModelID=40082Would this be ok for you to wear? Damo |
