Cadwell park ngrrc crash

Post by ChowderV4 » Sat May 17, 2014 7:03 pm

i was at cadwell for the ng road racing event. loved the track, even aired the mountain a little!

i had just won the newcomers race but the weather was changable with it bein dry/wet/dry etc

i ran slightly offline and hit a river running across track, we were on wets but i think this upset it ant bang! im flying through the air....thats the last thing i remember until i woke up in hull hospital.

Turns out i went straight down on my head, cracked my helmet chin piece! fractured my jaw and back and badly broke my wrist :( need it pinned and plated.

hopefully only miss one round and be back for donington though. and the best thing is i got it on video!! :grin:

Ouch. Healing vibes and hope you're back on the bike as soon as possible.

I did the same to my wrist bmx racing and was back racing two months later. Motorbike racing is a bit easier so you may be back quicker than that.

Not very pretty. Hope you get well soon and back on the bike.

Looks like they got it back into place very well with nice compression.
