Despite a hip injury and a torn groin, David Knight is flying out to Portugal for the second round of the World Enduro Championship this weekend.
He faces a delay of at least a fortnight before any operation can take place to repair the damage which forced him out of the past weekend's opening round in Spain.
Knighter says he will see if he can compete after a pain-killing injection.
Here's a reminder of what he told Manx Radio on Monday:
