One thing in the body’s healing process is that it won’t be pushed. Take your time, come back strong.

Lee, we all want to see you healthy and back on the bike and if it takes a little longer than so be it rather than rush it and make more complications down the road. The races aren’t going away so they will be there when you’re healthy enough to race them. Hope all is well with the family to include Mr Happiness himself NEAL! lol Cheers from sunny California.

We all know you want to get back to racing but being properly ready is the most important thing.Please don't push it and think of that lovely family you have around you. From another Grumpy Neil

Hope it all goes well Lee ❤ The tall trees are Poplar trees. The Match companies used to plant them on people's drives then harvest them from the middle and replant them so there was always an avenue Poplar trees are perfect for matches as the grain is perfectly straight so can be cut thin.

Had heard your news and that you are going to be working for the Beeb. But to hear it in your own words helps understand how hard this is for you. I know you are now pushing for the TT. Just don't push too hard. Not worth the risk of coming back too soon.

Just ordered the trial pack of yfood on yours and neils raving reviews and recomendations,. As for the leg, you managed to get home on it, maybe not the wisest decision, but with all the treatment and quick fixes it doesn't seem to be going your way, TT comeback is a borderline big ask, if its not to be its not to be, british championships a non starter to get anywhere decent in the points to, maybe get back into bsb mid year, and manx gp later on, as for tank paint, General lee flag, stay positive and stay safe,..cheers,...
