    Default Cant ride, cant shoot...This summers is gonna suck

    Last friday went out to berthouds mx track to practice for a team hare-scramble with a buddy and broke my left humorus bone in two spots and fractured my right elbow. Needless to say im a bundle of joy to be around. One good thing is the ortho said if I can keep my left arm totally immoble for the next 3 weeks I will avoid surgery. I have already started excersises on my elbow to regain some motion back. I was told that there is no way of knowing how much I will motion i will regain back and if I will ever ride again. Anyone have simillair injuries and have any advice? Im selling my wife and my bikes to help cover bills and hopefully when Im healed I can replace them.

    got some cool bruises though




    never had a wrap around bruise before....Carne Asada anyone?

    Way better than I did, just scuffed the end of the hand grip a lil. I wish I could say it was a great wreck but truth was that I was making a left in to a deep graded turn and I think I grabbed too much front brake and the front tire washed out under loose dirt. I didnt even go over the top, just ended up supermanning it face down in the dirt. I landed on my left elbow and to be honest I have no clue how I fractured my right elbow.
