In case anyone wishes to know, regular contributor "Ace"
has been seriously injured in a motorbike crash. No point in
my comments best see uk.rec.motorcycles.

**** - been and added my best wishes/speedy recovery to the thread....

If you read this, Ace, hope you recover asap.


Ditto.

For once we're all in agreement - best wishes for a quick and thorough
recovery. The group would miss Ace terribly.

doctors let him do anything that could put a strain on his back.

In that case I hope Bruce makes a full recovery as quickly as possible
even if it does take time.

With regards to Adrian's comment, someone recently said that he thought
off-piste skiing (which Bruce loved) has about the same accident rate as
motorcycling. They are probably not comparable but interesting how many
are drawn to the same sports.

wondered).

Agreed.

He may chafe if he can't ski in the 2006/7 season, but it is more
important that he recovers fully.

I certainly hope he does.

Nothing wrong with a bit of danger skier boy.

Hope Bruce makes as rapid a return to fitness as possible. Less easy to
achieve when you're not in the first flush of youth....

Parachuting, karting, rallying, skiing... fantastic fun. Motorcycling? Nah,
not for me. Three goods friends of mine have been severely damaged or killed
so far. None had kids, fortunately.

This is a positive thing even if one doesn't ride a motorcycle.

OI! I resemble that remark! I seem to be recovering faster than
expected so far, and see no reason why this shouldn't continue.

I'm sure that's not true. Biking is _much_ more dangerous, I'm sure,
even if you take newbies out of the equation. Although I guess I've
had more 'accidents' skiing than biking, but the level of seriousness
is usually _much_ lower.

I've not lost any mates for many years, but yes, it happens. I'm one
of the lucky ones, I guess.
