A big thankyou to forum member 'Cronar' for tracking down this article (http://www.thewest.com.au/20040114/news/general/tw-news-general-home-sto118380.html) in The West Australian (http://www.thewest.com.au) newspaper about Johnny Waddell's recovery.

It's fantastic to hear that he's slowly getting better and is determined to get back on the bike.

The whole MTB community in Australia and around the world is pulling for you Shooter, keep doing the hard yards!

just wondering if any of you guys know of footage on the net of the accident???

There is footage...try searching the forums for it because I'm certain there was a thread about it. A warning though, just because it exists doesn't necessarily mean you WANT to watch it, it's a genuinely sickening crash to watch :?

Always good to hear great news. Let's hope things only go downhill (in a good way ;)) from now on ;).

I hope to be at the fundraiser race, it's gonna be massive!

Keep getting better Shooter :)!
