    Welcome to the "broken shoulder club". :welcome:


    Sucks, but they usually heal with no linger effects.

    you're new around here aren't ya...the street crossings are the least of our worries at the loop. there have been too many injuries of str members to count over the years from riding the loop.

    heal up soon raptor!

    Bummer! Another one down!

    Was there a group buy on shoulder surgeries that everyone's trying to jump in on?

    If that's not it, there are easier ways of getting ahold of uncle Vic (Vicodin).

    No Bueno! Curse that evil trail!!!! never riding there again, if I hurt my self I at least hope the trail was worth it...don't think full loop fills that bill.

    Disclaimer: Now if I fall off Isip Ridge Trail Sunday I may regret this post. That is assuming I survive El Prieto Saturday.

    If it was by the parking lot... Were you by chance trying to make that jump off the wall?

    Heal up soon, buddy. I have a "I get to get back on the bike" gift waiting for you when you're ready! ;)

    Not to mention keithb's shattered arm, duke777 concussion/ass contusion. List goes on and on.

    XLPARAGON I would concede everything and watch yo azz on the Fully Loop.

    Fully loop is the Bermuda Triangle of mtn biking.

    How do you crash by the courthouse? Isn't it a paved road?

    I was bummed when you walked-over to us and said, "it's broken." :(
    I am super-bummed at the thought you'll be off the bike (you were really diggin' the new single speed)

    Get well soon!
    Swing by the Loop parking lot before/after a ride- just to say hello :)

    I stand corrected. I apparently misunderstood Shudders commment....though i think death trap might be a bit harsh.

    In any case heal up soon proraptor!
