The world cup has been an gone in Fort William but some still remain. If you happened to be watching the 4X on saturday night, you will have seen Sarsha Huntington go down in a huge crash leaving friends and fans with no clue how she is.

After slamming hard in her next heat - freecaster left the carnage and dust cloud of Sarsha motionless on the floor - and of course freestyled as usual with Warner and Co distracting the worst case scenario thoughts from our mind as she was stretchered off course.

After meeting Sarsha for the first time the week previous at the Harthill 4x weekend - her infectious personality, enthusiasm for the sport and genuinely amazing ability on a bike left me feeling gutted for her and full of compassion especially as im injured from a similar crash just 2 weeks ago.

On facebook her husband posted up this update this morning

Sarsha is currently still in hospital in fort will with a puncher wound in her thigh that has cut right through to her femur bone. She is well bummed about it but all good otherwise and is currently tossing up whether to stick around and try and race the next round or come home for some loving

Whatever she decides to do - we all wish you a fast recovery and hope the ozzy powerhouse gets all the support she needs while she is thousands of miles away from home!

Get well soon and we hope your back on 2 wheels again soon!
