    Some of you may notice my posting rate has slowed a bit over the last few days, its all because of this.....

    [​IMG]

    Ive had reconstructive shoulder surgery, the procedure itself is the same as the op Colin Edwards had following his crash with Marco in sepang. Except ive had it front & back and he only had it front.

    In the words of the Surgeon, it were knackered!

    6-8 weeks in a sling, at least 3 months until a decent guess can be made at recuperation time, but looks as though 6 months minimum off the bike and possibly the same (if not more) off work.

    Question is...do i now sell the 07 Blade & build a mega 08/09 version or improve the 07 further?

    Its a tough call, id have to get fair (not top book) money for the 07, and find a cheap 08 (which i have, lol) but the chances of it all coming together at this time of year are slim!

    As for the shoulder...beer is helping!
