The scaphoid was also going well but needed a follow up set in January before it was signed off.

So now the surgery is done. Physio still ongoing if I want it - the joys of not having to pay for medical care.

I've still got a way to go to get fully fit, and no amount of physio is going to grow back 2cm of missing femur - a wedge in my shoe takes care of that. I rode my R80G/S down a dirt track at the weekend - the bike won't allow me to go too fast which, for the moment, is a good thing. I expect I will be back on a dirt bike in the next 12 months but not yet. I did manage a game of badminton last night for the first time though so progress is being made.
Best of luck to you going forward, Rossi. Sounds like you're going to be OK.
