 California Superbike School Director Andy Ibbott has made remarkable progress over the 10 months following a massive stroke and has returned to work at the UK operation's Silverstone HQ.Andy’s recovery to this date has been made possible by many factors including his own dogged determination and help from Neuro Phsyio’s Jon Graham and Kirsten Good from PhysioFunction. “Andy is one of those most committed clients that I have had the pleasure of working with. His progress to date has been outstanding” said Jon. “He has set the ultimate challenge for himself and his therapists: to complete the Marathon Des Sables. I am worried he is going to pull this off as I promised that I will join him in his endeavour.” Becky Blagdon his Speech therapist has also played a significant role in his recovery to date. Andy set himself many goals in place along his road to recovery and one of those was to get back to driving – that goal was achieved last week when he passed his assessment to drive a car again, with adaptations. His colleagues are confident that once driving his attention will turn to getting back out on track on a bike. Andy plans to be at many of the UK school dates this year supporting the CSS team and chatting with students; “I can’t wait to get back” said Ibbott “All the team and students have been so supportive, I can’t quite believe the number of messages on the guestbook, cards and well wishes I received.” California Superbike School's opening UK dates are on the 19th/20th March and will be held on Silverstone's International circuit, which is 1.85 miles long and includes the southern loop of the famous Grand Prix track, taking in the Hangar Straight.
