Arm Is Fractured.

I fractured my left radial head and my ulnar doing a stoppie gone awry (went over the bars).

As I fell I remember thinking, "Tuck and roll, don't put your arm down." But it was too late, elbow went the direction it shouldn't.
Hopped back on the bike, knew it was bad, as couldn't put any weight on it.

No riding for at least 6 weeks.

This sucks! :(

Sucks man...lets hope that the six weeks doesn't go any longer than six weeks...not to sound a spoil sport but I broke my hand 5 weeks ago and just got out of the cast...it's gonna be at least another 2 before I can ride...wasn't even that bad a break...first the er dr. told me 3-4 weeks...then my ortho told me 4-6...now it's 7...it better be. Heal up fast...

Thanks for the support.

Ortho told me 3 months off the bike (read: trainer bound) wife heard him say it too.

MRI revealed MCL tear

In 3 months, my trails will be snow covered!

Know anyone selling studded tires?
