Yup, there was a guy who I hung out with most days for like 7 years. He turned into a d*ck so I kinda distanced myself from him. Anyway I bumped into him after like 6 months of not seeing him. I sent a text after seeing him saying “never guess who I’ve ... more »

Think Covington made the right decision. Ultimately it sounded like the didn’t have the commitment/didn’t believe in himself to run with the top guys. Once that’s in your head, with the rough few years he’s had, it was the right move especially with ... more »

Yes so happy to see this!

Pinned scaphoid here. Cast for 8 weeks, then light physio really, hardly any movement at all now. Anyways, after 5 weeks I had a X-ray and my bone hadn’t even started healing. It’s unlikely that you’ll make it, honestly I wouldn’t risk it. Only one thing ... more »

Yeh, just been speaking to a guy doing road racing! He says it’s about 2k for a good weekend in road racing. Not got that kind of money. I’ll probably try and delve into a few different avenues and see where I end up. I’ve started physio again, one last ... more »

Very good shout, I’ve always enjoyed some indoor karting I’ll take a look into that!

I feel your pain man, but pleased to see a op has helped you. Loads of people say discs injury’s and operations don’t go but they’ve probably been Bieber by bad surgeons. Sounds like you’ve got a good one shame I’m in the U.K.!

Excellent suggestions so cheers all! It’s made me feel a bit better about giving it up! Sucks as i got a new fc450 last year and it pains me to see pics of all my buds riding! Anyway general concensous looks like e mtb, rc cars, Enduro, the list goes ... more »

Yeh that sucks man! But your right, when I stand back and look at the bigger picture it’s not worth it. I want to play football and wrestle my kids like I used to do. That won’t be possible if I carry on. I guess moto just runs deep, it’s all I ever ... more »

Haha no I hear you I do love pushing myself to the limits and road ride myself. In fact probably the most tired I’ve ever been is after a 25mile Time trial. I had to crawl upstairs, never experienced that in my life kit even after a marathon

Good questions! Just everything about it. But that’s also down to going with my dad. He loves it and so do I, that’s why it makes it a tough pill to swallow. It’s great having something in common and spending time together. We’ve talked about jet skis ... more »

Good suggestion, I’ve heard it can be a good buzz, I’m only about 45 mins away from the coast so not bad! Some different for sure!

Jesus man that’s serious. I’ve no ops yet but I’m waiting to hear bsck from my physio as it will probably be my next option to get a fusion. Sucks but I’ll do it if it means me having some normality bsck! Do you find it a lot easier on your body than ... more »

Someone actually suggested this a while back to me and I shrugged it off but it has potential. Looks good fun and there’s more tracks etc, deffo worth looking into I think, I can imagine it’s good competitive racing too

I’ve tried everything man. I’ve been rehabbing for the last 2 years, all I’ve done for the last 3 month is my core exercises religiously and small walks. Proper sucks but I guess it could be worse. Good to see you still been active in the gym one day ... more »

Damm some great suggestions here and I’m going to have to look at them in more detail. I don’t think I’ll be stuck for something to do in my spare time. I always thought I’d be riding into my 60s but looking around now and thinking about it, most riders ... more »

Yeh that’s my only concern! Moto has been hard work recently with covid, having to book in everywhere etc and it just a hassle trying to ride. Along with the extra costs, I’ve always said I’d love to do it but it’s probably not all it’s cracked up to ... more »

Yup. The best race on earth cancelled. Love the TT and it’s going to be crap without it this year.
