Hamish McRaker 601 Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) Is the bionic man finally finished with riding or will he be making another comeback? If so, would any club hand him a team place? Edited December 19, 2018 by Hamish McRaker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

E I Addio 15,845 Posted December 19, 2018 I remember him guesting for Lakeside. He fell and dislocated his shoulder . He still went out I his next race, in a lot of pain to crawl round at about 20m.p.h. To collect third place in a three rider race to collect the single point that gave Lakeside the narrow win. Considering the amount of pain he was in, and the fact that he wasn't even a Lakeside rider, just a guest, it was one of the most courageous rides I have ever seen. He would have been quite justified in withdrawing from the meeting. If ever a rider deserved more success, Adam did. Best wishes for the future Adam. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would he even be insurable knowing that a claim is almost inevitable? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But then he was injured ... I hope that he has decided to retire now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GiveusaB 1,144 Posted December 19, 2018 He'd of definitely made the GP's without injury and with the right backing. One of the most naturally gifted riders I've seen in a long time! (since Michael Lee scored an 18 point maximum at the age of 16, in his debut season and on his first ever visit to Perry Barr......unbelievable!) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
