Helen and I have been back from Singapore since a week now... where I was initially hospitalized for nearly 3 weeks and stranded for 2 more for doctor/hospital visits.

For those of you guys who aren't aware, I had a pretty nasty high-side at about 120kph. A high-side is when the non-rear-happy race bike spit you up 2 meter above your confortable seat. I only remember flying like a kite and have no recollection of touching down... which is a good thing... a few doctors commented.

For all we know, I woke up 3 days post accident in the Shanghai Huashan hospital ICU to be air transferred to SG General on the fourth day as per med insurance request. Very pleasant, and so is the feeling of 6 broken bones scattered in my upper left arm, back ribs and shoulder.

I still have a persistent headache and neck pain but this seems to be improving every week.

Good news is I am recovering quite fast and well, no permanent damage caused(they say loll) and should be fit for office work in mid December. The bad news; my superbike MOTOGP 'wannabe' carreer is over. Little over 20+years of SBK racing TERMINATED.

Special thanks to the BUPA (medical insurance company) for caring for me in a very important way. Those of you into extreame/dangerous sports, those are the guys to go with. I am not sure how much in total but someone told me around US$60k for the package (incl a minor surgery in the shoulder).

I'll be back full throttle in a month, less the racing bit :/

Lots of catch-up to do. Missed you all
