Heal up mate.

Bastard...!
Never met the bloke but he struck me as unassailable.
Here's trusting his indominable spirit will stand him in good stead for a speedy and full recovery.
Anything you ask on his behalf or he can post for assistance, and he's straight on the go to list.
He probably knows more about the diagnostic machines than the operator...!
I hope for their sake, the staff don't try to B.S. him...

What they said.

Huzo · « **Reply #33 on:** September 05, 2018, 05:56:05 AM »

I know it doesn't alter the bottom line, but what happened ?
Also.
Does he need his bike collected or similar..?

Heal fast Beetle.

Damn Pete, I'm sorry . Nothing worse than having someone you care about get hurt. Tell Mark we are all here for him just as he has always been for us. Hope he heals completely and soon.

Mark - wishing you well and a speedy and full recovery.

I never met Mark, but he obviously is a great guy just in all of the time and effort he spent with me online building countless maps for the Griso.

Best,
Ted

So sorry to hear about Mark, hopefully a quick recovery, wish him well

Once again, as with Michael, I have no idea what happened. At least Mark remembers the crash which is more than Michael does of his. I've only spoken to him and Leah briefly, I'll pump him for details when he's back in Wagga, (Currently he's in Orange and I'd guess as soon as he's pinned up and stable they'll move him closer to home.) but when I asked him what happened he said, "I fell off!". (Shrug.)

As soon as I know its location I'll go pick up the wreck. Hopefully it'll be recoverable, apart from the engine it's a heavily modified machine with a shit load of goodies and dozens of hours of work in it. I really don't want to write it off.

Ok thank you for that Pete.
I did not know you were home or else I would not have stuck my nose in offering to pick up Mark's bike, but in any case if there is some way we can help down here in the arse end of Victoria, I'll be happy to help whatever it is.
I cannot roll the throttle on hard when passing a line of cars without thinking of what he has done for us all, (also when at the very occasional servo..)

That sucks. Sorry to hear it. Here's to a speedy recovery and a sweet story to tell, that grows ever more interesting as the years go by.

Suck! As everyone has said, my heartfelt wishes for a speedy recovery. He seems a hardy soul, I'm sure he'll come roaring back but...suck!

Welcome to the Titanium Brotherhood.

I joined back in 2010 when I broke my left tib-fib.

lucian · « **Reply #59 on:** September 06, 2018, 06:49:16 AM »

Glad you're back among us. I can think of a few titanium jokes but the last thing you probably want to do is laugh with those ribs. Be a good patient and follow doc's orders now.
