Hi All,
Drew McPike has just been in touch to tell me has had an off whilst on holiday down South and is in Albany Hospital with Broken Ribs, Broken Collarbone and a Punctured lung.

Claims to be ok with no assistance required at this moment and no further info on what occurred at this time.

Will do Cookie,
He is in a fair bit of discomfort at the moment and not saying much.
Looking at further xrays this morning and may need a plate to repair the collarbone but no further contact since.

Regards

Drew is out of Hospital and back in Perth recuperating.

From what I understand he ran into the rear of another motorcyclist whose bike was less than a week old whilst travelling in the Great Southern.

Good that he is on the mend.
