Rich_P:
Is this the Ed Cobley of LRO?

100ft drop... Jebus.
Hope the guy makes a full recovery, that's nasty.

It happened on a challenge event last weekend. Both Steve and Rob were quite badly injured, but they are both recovering now.
Their vehicle rolled a number of times on a stage. There were 3 or 4 rolled vehicles that weekend.
The quality of roll cages is being discussed elsewhere on the forum... this is why bits of scaffold tube just aren't worth bothering about... the outcome would have been much worse if they weren't as well prepared.
Our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

:shock:
just to put everyone at ease, we're both ok, Steve's jarred his neck, so he's resting it easy for a few days as a precaution, I'm back to normal(whatever that was!)
but a good rollcage is a good investment thats for sure!
