Gofundme page for Mark Wilkes
https://www.gofundme.com/z3f5w4bu
From the page..
Some of you may already know that Mark went to New Zealand to passenger for Tim Reeves.
Well after a great first 2 weeks It's unfortunately taken a turn for the worse.. When on Monday evening whilst out on road bikes, he unfortunately was involved in an accident and has been hospitalised since..
He has multiple fractures to his neck and his left femur. But has no loss of feeling at all..
On Tuesday his femur was pinned and the doctors are very happy with the result.
And has just returned from his neck operation today, he has 6 broken vertebra which two have had to be fused.. But the docs are again very happy with the outcome.
He now has a longer stay in NZ and a long road to recovery.
He has been unbelievably strong and in good spirits all week.
Lets help Mark to a full recovery.

I saw Mark at lunchtime today, he is surprisingly upbeat considering what he has been through.
He is still determined to get to the cemetery circuit on boxing day (the nurse has other ideas), he's a tough little bugger.
cheers
Gordie

Tim has a passenger sorted for boxing day. He was a bit undecided at first if he was going to compete, but Mark made him.steve-e wrote:Thanks for that Gordie! Does anyone know what Tim's plans are now? PLEASE take Warwick out
Unfortunately Louis would have a heart attack if he saw Warwick passengering on one of his chassis. he would have to build one with the engine over the front wheel just to balance it out.
