so heres my leg after 2 weeks, just took it out of the wraps.




i was riding a fire road feb 18th, hit a small patch of ice and whamo, broke both tib/fib, spiral fracture.

i was probably going 10-15 mph, it was a slow pathetic crash, my foot started in the forward position, then decided to go into the bacwards position, sounded like plastic breaking. lol....

after my "first" ride in the ambulance, and waiting 8 hrs in the e-room, they admitted me for surgery the next day. got a ss rod from my kne to my ankle, through the marrow of the bone.

its been 5 weeks and im putting weight on it and am done to 1 crutch, starting at the gym today. thank god for ins. bill is 19700.00....wow..::rolleyes:

if i didnt have the ins. they would have just casted it up to my crotch and it would have been there for 3 months, then i would have to do pt after that.

well the good thing is all these sites with good pics of riding to get the motivation going. lol:) :)
