From what I can gather this has been his decision. Not one that has been an easy one to make. It's a real shame he's not riding as the fans have really taken to him I know I have since the Championship of Great Britain at Eastbourne, when he said "Middlo are you watching" his performance at that meeting paid off to show he was more than capable of pulling on a TEAM GB race jacket and "Doing the Business" for his country.
Hopefully the fact that he has sensibly taken time out to heal his injuries will make him stronger for the next series, he's a determined lad with a never give up attitude, Hopefully he will be back racing soon xxx All the Best Floppy and Hurry Back xxx
