Default BB goes down

This past Monday 1x1 Clyde takes me to Summit along with ChongoBlongo and Showtime. Awesome day of riding. 1x1 takes us on a total of 5 runs which included this slide for dear life trail in which you basically had to dodge rocks and trees whilst sliding for dear life Anyways I cleared everything (did walk over most of the logs though). Friggin stoked on myself.

Anyways I ended up crashing after hucking a 6" rock! So stoopid. I got sideways in the air and landed on my left forearm which I believe sent my elbow into my left rib. It hurt a little but I was able to finish the day. Well back to work and each day of lifting boxes is making the pain worse and worse; to the point intolerable. I doubt it is broken but Iwill still have to get an x-ray from doc to determine the length of absence from work. I have about 9 paid days left that I can burn but anything beyond that will put me in State Disability. I love my job but sometimes a desk job would be convenient! Soooo bummed right now.

Sorry to hear that it hurts when you're at work, but, more importantly, how does it feel when you ride?

Heal quick!
