Well I got a message from George the other day about 2 broken wrists & a visit to the hospital. So naturally i was curious. Now talk about shell shocked. There is this big bloke I've come to call mate, sitting in a hospital bed with both hands plastered. After talking to him, this is what i found out.
He was riding down Kalamunda Rd following a car at about 50kph. There was another car that was facing him from the opposite direction stationary waiting for a gap in the traffic so as to turn right. This would have the car crossing his line of riding. Now ordinarily this wouldn't be a problem as the said car would have to wait for George to ride pass so he could make his turn. This is when the things went wrong. The said car didn't wait for George to ride past & decided to drive straight thru' George... ( defiantly now a problem ). Any way end result is George impacts the cars bonnet & he plays superman and goes flying. Resultant injuries are George breaks both wrists and badly mangles the back of his hands and is out for the count for a few days along with his 30k Harley written off ( should have bought a Honda any ways ). As it turns out it looks like the driver of the car has a bit of a history and has been charged with aggravated assault. And to top it off when i got there George has his dinner laid out in front of him with no-one to feed him ( hands don't work so he must be fed by some-one else, much like an infant ). So i grabbed the knife and fork and helped him out. So on one hand I'm glad the staff at RPH attended to his medical needs, but at the same time it would be nice if they actually fed him. Any way George wanted to send a quick hello to all those on the forums via way of a video clip, as he is also starting to play with a GoPro cam...
