Default Three Rides Three Crashes

In the last two weeks i've had three crashes good'ns , but getting fed up with them now.

2 weeks ago ploughed though a fence into a family of spectators all i saw as i hit the fence was a load of kids infront of me , no one hurt thank God ,christ i shit myself ...
1 week ago came off after landing more than a bit sideways , elbow pads ended up round my shoulder, six stiches in my elbow and a very sore knee .

This weekend i came off and got hit in the back by the bike behind me right in the coxics, right now i feel like i've been kicked in the arse by a bull .....

Anyone else gone through a spell where they keep hurting themself week after week ?

1995.....Went up to Doncaster for a ACU British Clubmans event, within 1/2 lap came off hit a post and broke my nose, had it straightened on the Thursday, and race the Ken Hall 4 days later with a protective mould over my nose and lasted 1/4 of a lap, crashed broke my collarbone and 4 toes.....Unbelieved

Had better weeks
