Best wishes

Go out to Mark Tucker (secretary Exmoor enduro club) who unfortunately suffered a clean break of his left arm at last weeks AMCA enduro event at Hereford. Mark had to stay in hospital for a couple of days and had to have an operation (a 5hr one at that!) which involved having metal plates and screws being put in to repair it.
This believe it or not happened at slow speed as he was overtaking a back marker and just clipped a tree on the way past and a branch that was sticking out punctured his arm snapping the bone.
Having spoken to mark he tells me that the specialist has told him that due to the nature of the injury that he won't be able to ride for rest of the year due to the possible repercussions.
Hopefully we'll be able to see him at future events as his son Richard rides so i expect 'dad' will be there supporting him.

All the best Mark and good luck.
