Friday, February 23, 1906 Serious Accident Mr. Geo. REECE was amongst the crowd watching one of the bicycle races when a competitor's machine swerved in some sand and collided with Mr. Geo. REECE with considerable force, Mr. REECE received several very nasty abrasions in the face, and one forearm was broken. Mr. REECE was conveyed to the hall, where his injuries were attended to by Dr LYONS, who fortunately happened to be on the ground. Mr. REECE was well enough to leave for home later in the day. The cyclist was not hurt. Daryl Crabtree Gladstone C.Qld Australia www.ballaratgenealogy.org.au/goroke/index.html
