Description	Josh Quigley fractured his spine and pelvis in two places and broke his elbow, shoulder and four ribs just three months ago in a smash in Dubai. The Livingston man, who has now set off from the north-east on his journey, was confined to a hospital bed and his injuries led to his eventual Arthritis diagnosis.
