Hey there Robbo glad to 'hear your voice' so to speak. You live in one of the '______ Hills' right? I'm all for coming up there to keep you company if you want company. Good luck with the Dr.'s tomorrow.
Re: photos. When I was in the hospital in Berlin, I was tempted to take one of those "LOL I'm taking my OWN photo! In a hospital gown! Hopped up on pain killers!!!!! LMAO" But I didn't. Now I wish I did. All I got are pictures of the view out of the window from my room.
Mike, wish I'd thought of the one-handed, arm in a sling trackstand pic. I actually did a one-handed ride down the block/trackstand with one hand while in a sling when I was London actually...

Rob, your rear wheel was pretty mangled, but I fixed it up before Milo brought your bike to urbane. It's ready when you are. 
Get well soon!
Good to see a smile on your face in that pic.
There were some pretty funny moments while I was in the room with you.
You telling the groaning lady on the other side of the curtain to "stfu!", I think it was too quiet for her to hear tho.
We were asked to only have two people in with you at once, so that's when Mitch and I left.
Mark and Wil have some other stories that you'll hear soon enough.
While you were waiting for your CAT Scan, the doctors were explaining that it was taking so long because of computer problems, and from halfway down the hall you exclaimed,
"I can fix it!"
Wil wrote down many memorable quotes.
Hope you're doing alright!

Nah, I didn't call. I got home from my ride, got some food and I've barely budged since. Feeling slightly under the weather actually.. a little light headed. Not sure what's going on, hopefully not the start of a flu! When I get sick I usually get hit hard and fast like that, and then it's gone again in a couple days. I'll probably plan to drop by some evening early next week if that's coo.

Good to see you back on the forum operator (though I printed out like 27 pages from the past 3 forum pages of todays banter for you to read... but I was too late and you went home
) - hope you get on well with the Doctors.. not going to CM tomorrow then? 
Oh, and I'll try and make the ride, depending on when you head up.

Cavernmech, could you give me a lift back into town after Saturday's race? I can get a ride out there, but the bike and I need a ride back into town.
