Hello Glenn, us 75 owners are having a tough year. I’m recovering from a broken tibia myself. Heed the physio but don’t push yourself too hard, it will take time.
Wishing you a full recovery. All the best Michael.

Good grief Glenn! Sorry to hear about your misfortune(s).
Having spent some time in the Maritimes in the winter you have my condolences. I hope you are healed and able to carry out your plans in the spring. That said, with all that's going on in the world there are worse places to be than Nova Scotia.

Wish you good luck with making a full recovery Glenn. Like you I have been riding motorcycles for donkey's years, but luckily although I have parted company with the bike and gone down the road a few times none of them so far have ever ended up in a hospital bed.

Hope your move back to Europe goes as smoothly as it can.

Thank you Rich. Say, looks like your avatar picture is taken at YXX. We lived there for 10 years before moving to NS.

Thanks Mike. Yeah, I don't recommend it. This was the first time it ever happened to me when in motion.

Yes, getting moved ASAP is now the top, TOP priority.

Cheers,
Glenn

I wish you well and a speedy recovery.

On the positive side as someone who has worked and lived in some not so great places at least your in a country where from what i understand has a pretty good health system and the doctors speak your own language.
I always dread being in some sort of trouble like that what i am at my Russian home.

Thank you. Yes, there are worse places in the world to be in medical distress.

Cheers,

It would be good to see a 75 on the road in Slovakia, a very rare sight indeed lately. I do see one particular MK1 regularly which belongs to someone near where I work, but apart from that one the last one I saw was a BX51 plated British visitor, parked up in a town called Valaska. (Dorchester red one I believe)

Where will you be locating to?
