Update
Steve went on a track day at Oulton Park recently and said he is more comfortable on his bike than off it..........there's a surprise!

The physio told him at the last visit that it would take 18 months to 2 years to get him right.........the reply.............you've got 6 weeks mate!

He visited the spinal clinic again on wednesday (20/02) and the news continues to be good. I snitched on him for going on his bike, the doc said to make sure he has a back protector on. Steve asked if his spine was as strong as before the accident now and the doc said "you've broken what god gave you" which Steve took to mean he can go racing again...............I despair...........more sleepless nights for me when the season starts. I think he's recovered so quickly because the thought of missing any racing would make him cry so he's back to work to pay the race bills and has several offers of bikes to ride and a lovely new classic built.

Fingers crossed for a better season.
