Guys,

This is not very pleasant news . . .

Simon has been involved in a serious accident whilst racing

yesterday. An attached likn shows some of his injuries . . . PLEASE

BE AWARE IT'S NOT AT ALL PLEASANT . . . so don't view if you don't

need to.

Anyway, he's said to have had a stroke during the race and crashed

heavily on his face and shoulders. the kid's in a bad way BUT

STABLE. He's been transferred to St Vincents in Melbourne. His

parents and Sam have made their way their first thing this morning.

I'm sure all our best wishes are with Sime & co for a speedy

recovery. Positives are that medical staff don't believe the stroke

has caused any permanent damage, however, the next 24-48hrs will

reveal more.

Ben and Therese will be with him most/all of the day, however their

mobile numbers are *** and *** and would happily accept

messages/best wishes.

Sorry to be the bearer of such ****ty news.

Dom
