Thank you, both, but sorry to say I've had to change my plans for Sunday. Conscience wouldn't allow me to be apart from the Mother of my kids on that auspicious day!

Bitter Sweet Greeves Debut.

After all the effort to complete the Challenger in time for Marks Tey. Son Sam managed to break his leg in the second pre 68 race on the Triumph after only nursing the Challenger round in the first Greeves race. The bike went well with no problems. Not so Sam they operated last night and plated the break, hope to be back in around six weeks.
Many thanks for all the kind wishes. And a big thank you for those who gave help and advice in completing the project.

Sorry to miss the event, but not as sorry as Sam and Keith Fitz-John who have both broken legs. I hope both are out soon.

Andy, I hope Sam gets well soon. Hope to see him out on the Greeves and Metisse soon.

Bitter sweet debut

Ended up working on the griffon last Sunday so didn't make it to Marks Tey. Sorry to hear about Sam and Keith's misfortunes. Hope they both get well soon.

Andy / Sam - really sorry to hear about the injury and right at the start of the season too! At least you can't blame the Challenger! If the leg repair is as good as the Challenger looked in the workshop, you'll soon be back in action.

Rotten luck, really sorry.

Get well soon!

Hi All, sorry to learn of the injuries to Keith and Sam at Marks Tey, I hope it's not too long before both are on the mend.
Enjoyed the Video Mike, thanks. From the lively shots of the camera you were certainly giving it some, difficult to make out where you were but from what I could make out, I only saw two other riders in front of you, so does that put you in a third pace finish, I didn't see anyone go past you! It would be great to learn how you and everyone else got on!

Also sorry to head about Keith and Sam all the best for a speedy recovery. ...... Rob not sure what the finAl placing for young michael was .... But it was one better than me ! I spent that race inspecting the 250's tailpipe .. Michael was flying ! Interesting format with 3 greeves races but only second two to count . A chance to practice in the first and get used to the track before going balls out. Personally I liked it. Any other feedback from the riders?
Cheers Kim
