Mike Kamis in an accident.
Mike has suffered a badly broken leg when commuting to work this morning, he was knocked off his bike by a car travelling in the opposite direction which turned right, across his path. This sent him flying over the car, landing on his leg which took the full brunt of the impact, the driver was questioned by the police but I have no more details regarding this.
He had a 2 hour operation at Dewsbury hospital this afternoon and has been advised that he faces a 5 month rehabilitation (don’t know if that is off work/ in pot/off his bike or what).
He will be sorely missed on the club runs and at the time trials he had planned for the year, it is a real shame for him as I’m sure you will all agree he has come on tremendously and had a promising season ahead of him.
Hope you get well soon Mike and I look forward to you dropping me again when you are out on that monster of a mountain bike.
Steve.
