Isle of Mꦿan TT veteran David Madsen-Mygdal has shared details about his recovery from a health scare.

A statement confirmed: “We would like to let everyone know ꦰthat Dave suffered a major ischae🐻mic stroke 7 weeks ago. 

“He didn't want it to be made public until now. He's feeling much better and has made a remarkable✅ recovery so far.”

Madsen-Mygdal adde🎃d: “It has been fairly hard to come to terms with the fact tဣhat I had a stroke.

“I thought I was fairly fit. Obviously I wasn’t.

“I was only skiing a fortnight before I had the stroke. I was doing what I shouldn’t have been doing - drinking, not eating enough, dehyd🌱rated, not drinking water, smoking.

“Everybody knows I smoke a lot, but I haven’t had a fag for the last seven week𒅌s!

“Hopefully I will get fit now.”

Madsen-Mygal, aged 69, intended to race at 𝓡the 2025 North West 200, 🐠the Isle of Man TT and the Manx Grand Prix.
