Glad to hear things are healing up ok Jonno. The confidence thing will always work that way. I still have to check myself not to back off through turn 12 at the Island and the last crash i had there was in 1994!!!!!!! :roll:

Sorry to hear mate. At least the damage is minimal to both you and the bike. Hope the leg's feeling better soon.

After 2 offs in 3 weeks last year due to shite road on both occasions you now know what was going through my head as we went from Bruthen to Omeo along the river on the CDT ;)
