Wow, that is a bummer. You got the X-Rays? I'm sure when the doctor says less than two weeks you'll be on that saddle no questions asked. It's doable, just a sharp pain for about 20 min. but you soon ignore it...until you hit a bump so please be careful and heal fast my friend!!!

Wow. I bruised my ribs and was off the bike for a month. It was excruciating. You're my hero if you can have broken ribs and not know it.
Hope you're feeling better soon.

Wow, sorry to hear, Gene. Having had broken ribs before, I feel your pain and discomfort. Try not to sneeze or laugh but I think that's stating the obvious.
Good luck and milk the love! ![]()

Gene, take care of yourself. If you need a distraction, I will offer to take you to lunch, and promise not to make you laugh too much. See you out there soon. Listen to the doctor. Your body needs time to heal! K
