Thumbs down Mike Selman / Bellacorse Down

Mike Selman just called me.

Some of you who visit the BIR site will know he took a slow speed spill on Saturday. Bike OK, but mike has cracked or broken ribs and his left hand is out of action for a week at least, so no orders packed and going out.

To add insult to injury his web site is down.

Any questions, etc: dont post here, e-mail mike or phone him. Working one handed he can deal with e-mail and phone!!

Mike, hope you're feeling better soon! Busted ribs - an every-breath kinda hurt. Crashing sucks - high speed, low speed, standing still falling over in your dang driveway (as I have done)... amazing how even at low speed or no speed you & bike can get plenty f''d up... gravity is relentess...

Cheers,

D9

Wish you well mike

Hope you're OK mike, Over the last couple of years, I've come to regard you as a friend, who supplies me with good advice as well as parts.

All the best

Speedy recovery Mike. Crashing sure sucks. Good to hear it was any worse.

Thumbs up

Mike - sorry to hear about the spill. I hope you get better soon. I have broken my ribs before and I know how much it hurts. Ya can't breath, ya can't cough, ya can't sleep right, ya can't sneeze, ya can't even laugh because they all make it hurt! I recommend plenty of Percocet, chaser and rest!
