Below are his words of what happened at Castle Combe & the terrible outcome ...


Hi all, some of you might have heard I had a pretty big moment today at Castle Combe. Bike got into a tank slapper at 120mph which led to a crash into Folly corner. The bikes pretty banged up, but it's the least of my worries.

It's all a bit up in the air at the moment, but what we know is I've got a significant fracture im my Sacrum (joins spine and pelvis) and I can't walk or use my legs at present. I'm heading to Southmead hospital shortly for an operation to attempt to repair the damage, and hopefully start my road to recovery. Not sure what the future holds, but I'll stay positive, and I thank everyone who has shown concern or given me kind words.

Special thanks to Sam Cartwright for packing my bike and car up, and Castle Combe Circuit medical staff for top first aid.

See you all soon
