Out for Ireland

I’m sorry to tell you I won’t be riding in Ireland. After seeing Dr. Claes on Monday he said it was best to sit this race out and be stronger for the last two. I had a second opinion from Dr. Costa Clinica mobile in Italy and they told me the same as Dr. Claes.

The new scan showed good calcium growth around the break but it isn’t hard enough. I’m disappointed because my points lead I worked all year on will be gone. Dr. Claes explained the healing process to me and in the first week not much happens with a broken bone. The 2nd week the calcification visiably starts to take place and you get some healing but the third and forth week is where things start to improve really fast and he was right. This week things have improved a lot!

I’m now lifting weight at the physio and swimming and today I started to run, so things are on the up. As I write this I am confident still because if I keep improving like I am I should be competitive in England and be able to push hard. I have another scan on Tuesday to confirm everything and then I’ll ride on Wednesday before going to Donnington. My days are busier than ever with a lot of treatment with the Peter my physio, and then training.

Again I want to thank everybody for your support, also all my sponsors for their understanding. Like I said last time I won’t give up and I’ll fight to the end. It’s been a tough few weeks but I’m happy that things have picked up and I’ll soon be on the track. For this weekend I plan to get some good training done like swimming and cycling and watch moto GP. I don’t really like to watch the mx1 and see my lead going down and down ha ha.

Before I close off I just want to say good job to BT. I watched his motos on the net last week in Millvile. He is on the gas! Good job boy. That’s it for now, hope to see you at the races very, very, soon and don’t give up on me just yet...

Cheers,

JC.
