i broke my index finger's metacarpal sp? such a small bone, yet i'm very disabled from it.

i decided to get cocky and take my tiny little singlespeed hardtail with 1.85 x 24" bmx tires and just a marathon front fork out to the falls city trails. that's where many of the photos in my signature are from. i did all the jumps and stunts fine until the third time hitting the last jump on the dual slalom course, it's the largest double there. there is a sharp right hand berm directly after the landing. i landed squirrelly, couldn't make the corner, jumped the berm, and rag dolled into a pile of logs. i hit my head first, leaving a deep imprint on my forehead. my left hip is all screwed up. i also have many deep scrapes on my left shin from my pedal. :nope:

I have a broken right arm, but I'm left handed! :p But doing everything with only one hand/arm does suck!
i'm right handed, so i've been forced to doing all my paperwork with my left hand. my penmanship really doesn't look that bad. in a month or so i bet it'll look really good.

it hurts to just touch my right hand.

I broke my left collarbone and had to do everything right handed. But being a lefty you learn to be amphibious...I mean ambidextrous.

the doc threw out the old one.
my new cast reminds me of the old bat man's gauntlet. i'm thinking about adding those "fin" things like he had.

I pulled the same move.
Whistler opening day this season. 1.95 tires. 4" travel manitou black. Small planet x bommer hardtail. Dirt merchant. Good thing I was wearing a full face because there are four fractures in the carbon fiber.
