First proper conversation
Local rider Dan Sayle is awake and talking - following his accident at this year's Classic TT.
Sayle was transferred to a hospital in Liverpool for treatment for head, chest and spinal injuries following an incident at Ballaspur during the Lightweight race on Saturday 25 August.
In a post on social media, his loved ones said "Dan is awake, although very drowsy we had our first proper conversation".
