First blood has been drawn in the 'War of the Trails' at Burkeville.
Currently, Mr Wombat is drinking ice cold Crown Larger while snacking on BBQ chicken wings, all nice and snugly in one of his many holes.
Colin Charles Burke however, is laid up in bed, left leg in traction, whacked to the eyeballs on prescription drugs, with a dislocated knee.
On Wednesday morning - Colin went left to dodge the wombat poo on one of his North Shore ramps; changed his line; pushed him wide; ended way out of control. The wombat snickered; Col turned to see who was laughing; landed wrong; and popped his knee from its socket. Mr Wombat backed up; flicked dirt in Cols face; snickered again; and off he trotted.
Whilst some may say that the wombats win was a shallow victory; Colin has always been shit on those obstacles. Other will say that a win is a win, and currently the wombat sits on top of the competition ladder.
All I know is that the 'War of the Trails' at Burkeville has only just begun.
Colin has had his knee diagnosed - and his knee cap is broken.
ReplyDeletePoor poor buttons will be out for most of this year.
poor poor wombat is runing pretty scared
Our co-founder - Colin Charles Burke - is currently laid up in Burkeville, recovering from fridays marathon surgery on his knee.
ReplyDeleteThe final diagnosis was that the tendon was ripped from the knee cap( how's that for all medical like!).
The Doc had to whip down to Bunnings mid surgery, grab some longer screws and a 4" gal plate, and go to town on his knee bone.
More prescription drugs, less Coopers Pale Ale, and more time spent on the internet trying to buy some ACME Wombat traps.
Hope to see you back on the bike soome mate!
PS.Does anyone know where the coyote actually gets all those traps from?
