    I am going to sprinkle this thread with some "Weak Sauce!" I was expecting a snuff film with that title, but get well soon.

    Glad to hear you are OK and still in good spirits!

    I bet your stoked you didn't tear your Path jersey either! And even more happy the ER staff didn't have to cut it!

    Healing vibes.....

    Yowza! Good thing you didn't mess up your jersey, or did you? You're tough, way to hang in there. Heal well. Cuts are so much better than breaks, sprains, dislocations.

    that is sick, literally!! :)

    Don't feel bad, I think there were a couple injuries yesterday, I saw a pic of a riders knee that looked like fresh ground sirloin (crash on motorway)

    I fell in a ravine coming down HJ yesterday (on one of the tricky turns), bounced 10-12 feet down the rocks and it took someone stopping and lifting my bike out before I could crawl out (who ever that was thanks!!) Amazingly just kinda bruised and scratched up a bit so nothing major.

    scars are the original tattoos!! :)

    Thanks David, but I didn't finish, unfortunately. There wasn't enough in me to turn left at the bottom of HJ..... and I don't think anyone at the Aid Station would've let me anyways, hahaha.

    Whatever they did to you to fix you up looks like it was worse than actually getting injured, considering your facial expression before and after. :eek:

    I guess that I'm not squeamish of seeing guts, but I suppose I'm squeamish of seeing painful facial expressions, if that makes any sense.

    Why did I have to read this thread in the middle of the night, eating a yogurt? Sheesh.

    I think the final scar will spell out V-I-S-I-O-N-x-Q-U-E-S-T

    Mark my words...

    Glad you're okay. Heal up.
