Novocastrian Masters broke a bone at the base of his tibia when he hit a bike in front of him after the other rider crashed in practice for the final round of the Australian championship at Gillman last Sunday.
He was unable to compete in the final round at which Pelaw Main’s Rohan Tungate secured the title from Cowra’s Brady Kurtz.
“It was a tough Australian championship for me. I could ride in a fortnight if I needed to because it’s nothing too serious even though I need surgery,”: Masters told the Edinburgh Reporter
“The fact they are putting a screw into the damaged area means they are strengthening it and I’ll be right and good to go pretty quickly.”
Masters, who hopes to qualify for the World GP series, quit the Edinburgh Monarchs to concentrate on the UK Premiership with Wolverhampton Wolves and his teams in Europe.
