I fractured my left elbow, and have a few rasberries all over... My head is ok just got a headache from the fall. Next time I'm wearing my pads. I always do, but thought I would take it easy and not need them. I guess I didn't take it easy..hehe. Thanks everyone for stopping and making sure I was ok.

Get well soon from another fractured rider.

I just got my cast off on Thursday from fracturing my radial head while riding. Now I have 4-6 weeks rehab.

vandeec5 · 06-13-2009, 11:17 PM

Get well soon! Were you the one with the green bike who told me you should have worn your pads before the fall?

Snipe Tracks · 06-14-2009, 07:54 AM

Yes I was.

scorp · 06-14-2009, 08:09 AM

Dino Brown · 06-14-2009, 08:36 AM

Get well soon...

Even if you can't ride... There's nothing stopping you from joining us at Roscoe's!
First beer is on me...

ezzyride · 06-14-2009, 09:58 AM

I don't know the name of the location but it's just after a long hill where we stop at the top that next down hill where the first set of wooden blocks are you have to go over. towards the top is where I ate it.

I'll take you up on that beer

scorp · 06-14-2009, 05:26 PM

Ya, I know that hill. It's a little loose and you deifitely have to watch your lines. It sucks wiping out. Get better.

Snipe Tracks · 06-16-2009, 03:52 PM

Well I got some good news from the orthopedic Doc. He says theres no fracture. Yes that's awesome it also means the E.R doc doesn't know anything. I found out later the X-ray tect at the ER even said it was negitive. However there is an infection that needs to be delt with before it makes me sick. The E.R doc didn't even clean out my wound. I had to when I took a shower. No wonder it got infected. Anywho I can't wait to see you all on the trail mhen my arm stops hurting. Be strong ya'll. Ride on

lorabee · 06-16-2009, 04:04 PM

I hope you heal up quickly and are back on the trails soon.

Holy crap this loop is dangerous. You should have just shuttled it.

Hope you heal up soon!

shap · 07-02-2009, 11:41 AM

Get well soon...

Thanks for good reminder to get pads...

Byron B · 07-02-2009, 12:49 PM

ouch... dont let that slow you down next time, get well and get back on the trail ASAP.

paulbschmidt · 07-02-2009, 12:53 PM

Did the same exact thing back in April. If you haven't already approached a surgeon, check out Irvine Ortheopedics, Dr. Richard Bairds office.

He performed my surgery back on April 21st, I was in rehab at Breakthrough Physical Therapy (on Tesla) and was healed, fused and back riding about two weeks ago.

He's a fricken awesome surgeon and on most of the insurance plans. He put two screws in and I was good to go in less than two months. Also, Rich at Breakthrough is the guy to see for fractured radial heads.

Just some advice.
