I just want to say get well soon to Norm, who anyone who has done Bemsee or Thundersport meetings will know as 'The Man on The Gate' letting us all out onto the grid.. armed with a whistle and a knack of spotting lids not done up properly. Norm got hit by a bike at a Thundersport meeting at the weekend, an unfortunate accident in pitlane. Norm has got a broken Tibia, smashed knee cap, a sore head and ankle from the post I've just read. He's been operated on and is ok. Get well soon Norm! If you're registered on the forum here you can post your get wells in this thread here or alternatively from the originating thread in motoforum and between us all we'll be sure he receives them.
