Lee - your body is “under reconstruction” please get all the help you can get to keep the mental dimension in balance❤️ buy the wife a lot of flowers

[@mickleblade]

Chocolate is more important

[@danhavard9205]

[@iancharlton5530]

Gutted for you and you have worked so hard. Onwards and upwards 💪🤙👌🇬🇧🍺🚀

[@johnbeard8013]

My heart sank when the video went to you with the crutches, speedy recovery 🤞

[@howdoyoudo2927]

Gutted for you Lee, wishing you a swift recovery

[@DB-so8zc]

Hoping for a quick and full recovery! You are one tough man!

[@Herringfish101]

Stuff happens and it happens quick. I'm sure you were well within your limits. We all get called out. Hope you heal quick! God bless!

[@oldgolfpunk]

As an old 50+ ex racer, there is always something guiding us to make decisions... that decision mite not be what we want todo, so it keeps reminding us the problems... One bad crash, Then another soon after, and then another. Deep down you have to ask are you being told or warned something deeper than you know... Some people don't listen to this and pay the price, Your being told a message my friend, ive been there myself. Pretty much the same situation. My last almost took my leg off and left me bad for 10 years. I'm glad I listened to that sixth sense inside and stopped. I'm still here. I understand every thought you have flying round your head... all this small accidents that should never have happend are not random. They are signals, signs or what ever you wish to call them.

[@timdixon503]

So true what your saying. It's a hard decision to make, but you only get so many warnings.

[@therealquaid1694]

What a load of shit

[@therealquaid1694]

What a load of rubbish.

[@oldgolfpunk]

Perhaps you could explain your quote of rubbish more fully from your own experience or understanding my friemd. Or does that mean you actually have to move outside your comfort zone of life.. ​@@therealquaid1694

[@oldgolfpunk]

​@timdixon503 very hard decision, its your way of life. People tend not to accept life tells them things. They ignore it. What if ??? Your out on a ride, you get knocked off and break a bone.. you curse and dam it because this coming weekend you have a big race event you put alot of time and money into. Now that's gone. People automatically think such bad luck and a terrible situation. Now what if that small tiny accident you just had, stopped you from racing this weekend where you would suffer a massive accident that would either kill you or put you into a wheelchair for life unable to move from neck down... Was that initial accident a blessing or a curse...

[@jameswhalley9430]

Your a legend lee! Had my accident 2 days after getting back from the tt last year still haven’t got on a bike yet but I’m working towards it. Fair play to you

[@geraintgriffiths7487]

Mate, you just can't seem to catch a break. Gutted for you. Let's hope this is the last of the bad luck. Stay positive. ✊️

[@derrenmitchell]

Speedy recovery Lee. Hope you give your body time to heal before getting back on a bike.

[@shaunxpreston2341]

Lee Lee Lee Lee, noooooo dude not more bad luck. I hope you make a speedy recovery and return faster than ever💨💨💨💨💨

[@ixifutureproof9286]

Hoping for a rapid recovery. Just remember you're an expert by experience now, so you know the rehab journey. What to get on with, and what to move your focus away from. Keep strong in every way. Onwards and upwards 💪

[@TheSudsy]

Bloody hell Lee. Get sorted fast mate.

[@mattster303]

These things are sent to test us mate and you are doing great. Keep your chin up and keep that prize in mind. You'll be there soon

[@88pedro888]

If you're not trying you can't be winning. You're were trying hard, doing all the right things to reach your goals for this year and there's no shame in that. Hope the damage isn't too severe and recovery time is minimal. Best of luck Lee

[@simonbelton7165]

Bummer , gutted for you . Don’t worry about people thinking what was ya thinking going n doing that … that’s what you racers do int it . Love the channel , chin up n get well soon . 👍

[@What.The.Fluff.]

Dang it, Lee! Gutted for you! Seems like the universe was trying to tell you not to ride that day. Was looking forward to seeing you race Daytona, but hopefully you will be able to race the rest of them! Continued prayers & best wishes for a speedy recovery! 🙏💪❤️‍🩹

[@noordinaryskid4828]

Lee, the universe is trying to tell you something mate. You've got a beautiful family and so much potential in other areas of your life. At the end of the day it's only a motorbike race that risk vs reward just isn't worth it in my opinion. BUT alas I'll respect your decision on whatever you choose to do. Best wishes on your recovery.

[@Leejohnston]

Really do appreciate everyone’s opinion on here but if I quit every time things were hard at the start I never would of made it mate, and I appreciate my family more than anything in the world and luckily they support my decision fully. Thanks tho as I know you mean well with your comment 👍🏻

[@stephenmorrison4834]

Sorry to here your going through the ringer again mate health ways but you got to take care and do what you got to do for yourself and your family speedy recovery mate 👍

[@Nick-Emery]

I’ve been watching Lee on the TT podcast, I have only just started following him for the last few months but he’s becoming one of my favourite riders… I just love that’s he’s really down to earth and normal

[@carsons5750]

No judgement Lee, just love from across the ocean!

[@user-fs9nt6zh7i]

Speedy recovery mate! Just a quick point, we replace those pad pin "R" clips wiith .032 safety wire for that very reason. They can break or simply fall out.

[@Leejohnston]

Thanks for the info I’ve been told this since but had no idea before 👊🏻

[@davidlutton4560]

To get on that plane, you probably told the airline you were suffering from an ingrown toenail😅. Joking apart, it's a buggeration, but the bones will heal, so keep the chin up. We're all routing for you

[@stealth-welda]

Best wishes Lee , gutted for you mate. Hoping you recover really quick 👍

[@Mokyjohn1800]

Really sorry to hear this mate. All the best for a speedy recovery but you’re an absolute warrior so no doubt you’ll be back soon and I personally hope to see you on track at Oulton in May 👍 Hope you can see from the comments that you needn’t worry about people’s reactions. I bet The vast majority of those who watch your vlogs just want you to have a great season but more importantly, stay safe! Cheers.

[@speedwaystevemk2]

Wishing you a good recovery, not surprised the doctors were not happy flying home !!! . The pain must have been mental ( broken right leg 3 times so know )

Well, bollocks. A bit of a temporary setback. On a lighter note, it was my Birthday yesterday and I will send all my good Birthday luck to you for a swift and relatively painless recovery. Also received positive news from my doctors last week, blood clot gone, off the meds and back on the push bike for me. Thanks for the encouragement when I needed it and let us give some to you in return. Hope to see you on the push bike and moto soon! Until then we shall be very happy to hear your dulcet tones on the socials and KZbin!
