He came 11 overall

Hia

What can one say but wish I could get my hands on the dipstick(sorry can't use the swear words I'd like to use) that caused our George to crash .
I spent the good part of the day with George at A&E to just get his knee checked out.
They were brilliant even though waiting was long but thank goodness for phones and iPad to keep us amused.
After the practise nurse proded and poked his knee , she sent him for X ray, then talked through what it showed
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury
So he is now booked in to see Consultant on Monday

Our George is so committed to his MotoX . He goes/ went to the gym every evening, he cycles he keeps fit.
Now he will be out of it all for the time being . Will know more after next week but could be out for 12 months.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
12 months is a long time out of his sport

everything was going so well
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Wishing him a speedy recovery Polly and hope it's not that long

he will get stronger and come back better than ever,its just a shame,but hey ho this is what happens in such a dangerous sport.hopefully he wont be out for a long time.chin up......

Hope he gets back on his bike quicker than predicted- we wish him a speedy recovery

Hia

After visiting A&E we were told it was his Anteria Crutial Ligerment or whatever its called.
We got an appointment for last Monday at 2-20'
We arrived after paying our £6.50 for 2 to 4 hours stay. Grrrrrrr
Anyway outpatients was busy we managed to find a couple of seats. Heard someone telling someone they had been waiting 1 1/2 hours grrrrr
But not to worry phones, I pad and car park paid for.
Well within 15 minutes we were called in.
Doctor was lovely he explained his ACL was stretched but still intact. BUT a bone was broke and needed reattaching. So off we went for George to have a CT scan.
5 minute wait there and he was in and out. Waiting for us was the Truama nurse who told us he was to come in on Thursday at 7 am ready for a op, depending on what the consultant says as he wasn't there till Thursday.
All done and dusted by 3 .00 felt like royalty all was set up and fell in place . Hope Thursday all is ok

Oh and our George is buzzing as he could be back on his bike in 12 months

good luck george.

Hospital parking charges are disgusting.they would not accept those prices in other countrys=revolution is needed.

Hia

Still feel as though we are the only ones in the world.
Operation as gone well. Hiccup as first screw wouldn't ?
Our lovely doc screwed another hole and attached the bone with another screw ( so if I'm short of a screw I know where there is a spare one)
In painrest of day and evening and groggy 
Awaiting Physio so we will see tomorrow. But he is OK

Hia

Did I mention I was up at 5-30 am as well and did I mention I'm having a nice LARGE glass of JP

sounds like the op went well overall.

get on the scotch.

Hia

Hia

Well our George is on is way to Bwral. Highlands When I found it on the map I said he could catch a ferry over to Orkney a small he's only a fcouple of miles away from the ferry port
He's going on a training few days with his coach
(Soundsgood)
I thought he just got on the bike and rode it
But there's more to it than that.
Hthey are there for a couple of days then go to Tain
Glad they are staying over on the way up tonight .
Think he's back Tuesday.
And all these years of pinching an odd day off here and there from school, he now as official leave of absence. Would have made life a lot easier if he could have had these before.
England tracks are hit and miss in this weather. But Tain is suppose to be good. Pat his coach as been up a few times in the last few months

So there you go upto date

hia

Our George had a brilliant few days at Scotland. Came home to find he was going over to  a training week in Spain.
Great
Tyipical of this family passport runs out, so super gran to the rescue. Appointment made fees paid
I also booked parking
As I do worry about little things
So with Kath and Allan coming along to Liverpool with me we had a lovely day out and got his new passport ready for him for Tuesday

PRESTON DOCK MOTORCROSS

I went just for Saturday and had a GREAT TIME so went back Sunday.
Watching the big boys go for it really gets the heart going. Lots of can't look moments.
Weather was kind dry but was a cold wind on Sunday. 
Shame weather as been so bad as the fieldwas not really used so didn't see any exhibits , no stalls etc .
But the vans and motorhomes etc were parked on the go cart track so they were on hardstanding.
I had to park on the lane to the MX so my car didn't get muddy
Saturday George got a first in practise so set his mind in the right place.
He had a couple of falls but he pulled back.
The top 4 were really going for it. 

George got. 3rd overall and we are so pleased and only 1 point difference. 
It was BRILLIANT
NEXT ONE IS Callum Oxfordshire , but I can't make that so looks like my next one is Duns

Hia
Our George as had a Maxxis down at Fradden the other week running 3rd overall
This weekend British Youth Nationals at Culham

Well after having a terrible first race due to his wheel
George
Came away with 3rd Overall 
BRILLIANT
1st race. 9th
2nd race   1st
3rd race.   2nd
4th race    1st

OVERALL 3rd
When they add up the points 
Think he would have been looking maybe at a 1st or 2nd if his wheel had been ok 
But 3rd is good

So BYN 1st round     3rd
      BYN 2nd Round 3rd

Maxxis.  Running 3rd 
2018 looks good for our  George

Little write up from Bridgestone 

The Bridgestone British Mx Masters Round 3 Preston Docks 


There was plenty of high-octane motocross action In the SMPro MXY2 Youth Class, wild card George Simmutch was on fire and won all four races over the weekend. George rode faultlessly which gained him the maximum points total of 180. SRH Racing’s Rory Jones scored Second overall for the weekend and finished with 168 points. Sam Ongley was on form and managed a well-deserved third place overall with 162 points.

Wow well done again George,  bet you were excited Polly & very proud.x
