    Pretty sure most of your posts sound like you've been doing meth for 48 hours straight, so don't throw rocks in glass houses buddy. This post you did is actually semi-coherent, but what's up with the anger, you 50+ and still raging bro?

    I actually enjoy these forums too, sometimes because of your out-of-control meth head posts. Irony, huh?

    I didn't see anyone here saying they don't have insurance? pretty sure everyone here does or else they live in canada etc where it's not necessary
    why are we dumb MF'ers for riding and once in awhile getting hurt. tis how it goes. I try not to get hurt but when I do I take excellent care of myself and given that a couple of the guys that have posted here are actually in the med field themselves.
    And the bragging aint happening in this thread so you are the dumbass for not reading and spewing your anger

    why you so angry bro?

    If you can't afford the X-rays, you shouldn't be on the bike. You have already proven that your brillant intellect is regularly placing your ass in places where it can't affect the outcome, and the outcome is often BAD, so you can be sure that future outcomes will be the same. You ain't getting any smarter, youre out of school, yes? And I KNOW what I am talking about; I broke my arm twice in the same month, first break not being awful enough to force me into a trip to the ER, but it showed up on the x-ray of the next one a few weeks later.

    A friend, finishing a fifteen mile downhill fun, rolled past me slowly and stopped, when his cleat just wouldn't clear the pedal and he fell over on his side. He hurt, but would allow NO help walking the remaining 100 yards of trail to the car. (SO LUCKY) Living alone as a hermit, nobody forced him to the doc, he didn't need no fucking Doc. Three weeks of waiting for the pain to subside, he always went to work. After Six weeks, he was still in pain, he finally went to te doc to find out that he had broken the ball off the hip joint in the fall. It was NEVER going to heal, the stupid F. So now he has a steel one, and a BIG ass bill. They took a mortgage on his paid up home...

    If you ain't got insurance, you are too stupid to roll. Grow the fuck up, don't expect others to pay for your stupid, non-necessary injuries.

    Also, this shit about telling the docs to remove hardware before they want, or a couple years, lets say. Thats some stupid shit coming from a guy who got his medical degree just where again? Your risk is of damaging the partially healed injury, which very well may preclude it EVER healing. Yeah, you are going to INSIST he pull it all at 10 months, just so you can not miss a season? That better be a damn important ski season with a big payout Mr. Professional. You got no clue how fast you are going to deposit struturally significant bone, and most of it will assuredly be deposited into your skull where you already have a mass of useless bone.

    EVERY injury comes back to haunt you. You just wait, you numbskulls.

    You will ALLL gonna be fat couch potatoes, gimping around bagging on how rad you was, how you broke more bones than Evil Knievel and told ALL the docs how to run the hospital. But FAT and ugly gimp is what you'll be. Nobody will be impressed by your bullsht, just as you are not impressed by mine.

    You already got balls, and they did you nothing but get you broke. Get a pair of Hemipheres instead, before its too late. Cross the line, become Sentient. Get responsible. Go to the Doc; and Recognise(!) that if he isn't a FATFUCK of a LOT Smarter than you are, you better find a different Doc.

    Some day you may want a life when most of it has passed by already. Its FUN to still be ABLE to do physical shit; but you can't get there from your present attitude(s).

    I tell you this, I ain't gonna explain any more. But I am well past 50, and it still looks like I can manage my old injuries. Begin managing yours, Dummys.

    And pay your way, you wanna play? Get insurance or die in the ditch like a growed Man(/Moron). You are too Big and Bold to beg for Charity, right?

    I can only imagine how much more awesome the original post was. You know, before becoming the beacon of clarity that we see before us today.

    Glad to hear you're getting there, that sounds like a bitch. Good luck Man! I was up at the Doc today and got the full lowdown on my scapula fractures. None of the articulating structures were affected and my AC joint looks great so I should be in good shape.

Get out of the sling as soon as they'll let you and be super diligent about your PT those first couple months so you avoid frozen shoulder syndrome. Bone growth just takes time so weight bearing activities take months to get back to, but you can be working on your ROM within a couple weeks.

    What's that other piece of hardware near the top of your x-ray? Who did your surgery? If it was Widmer, say hi for me!
    My Doc was Rothberg over at the U Ortho Center. Seems to know what's up. My surgery was friday and he said I'm good for passive and active ROM, just no weight bearing. So I started in on that, as tolerated, the next day. It's A LOT better already. Feels so much better having the clavicle stabilized too so at least there's SOMETHING holding it all up. Glad to hear you're doing well. This shit's a bitch, LOL. edit: That thing up top in the pic is just an ECG lead. That was a flouroscopy pic taken in the OR. As far as I know, I was still out. Funny, the last thing I remember is telling the Anesthesiologists wheeling me back "Ok guys, whatever I say in here, STAYS IN HERE!"

    The only silver lining to beaterdit getting hurt is that we might see a little more of him on the forum until healed
    wish we were closer to lend a hand while you recover bud

    I went down hard a month or so ago... 1st real ride on a new (to me) bike and I blew through a familiar line with way more speed than I was used to. Ended up hitting an off-kilter rock hot and landed on my side into a small stump.

    I never went for an xray (although I AM insured..) but there's no doubt my ribs were in rough shape.

    It'll be 5 weeks tomorrow and I can still feel it if I move wrong or cough too hard..

    The Crash Thread

    Went down hard last Friday in the worst and dumbest wreck I've had in years. We had completed a 7 mile road climb, and a couple miles of fire road and were practically in sight of the trailhead. We were chatting, taking our time, not going fast. I had my palms resting on top of the grips, thumbs up on the grip. My right hand slipped off the bar, instantly sending me into the dirt. Got up laughing, until I realized that my knee was gaping open. Buddy insisted I sit and wait for him, but it took about a minute for the bugs to start driving me crazy, so I coasted down until we crossed paths. Then, an hour drive to the ER. By the time I got there, my knee and leg were covered in dirt and blood, which worked to my benefit cause the ER was slammed, but they didn't want me out in the waiting room making people uncomfortable. The highlight of the evening - even moreso than them interrogating the joint with 200 CCs of saline solution to make sure the wound hadn't infiltrated the joint space - was the ortho telling me that he wasn't able to readily get a hold of lidocaine, and that I could either proceed without, or wait a long time because he didn't have time to wait for them to find some. I opted for a scrub and stitch without cause I was ready to get the fuck out of there.

    So dumb. I've been resistant to knee pads for trail rides, but went ahead and ordered some. Though, I'm certain I wouldn't have been wearing them yet, so they wouldn't have helped in this case.

    The wound is crammed with dirt, so that's probably helping.

    Dirt sub for gauze... sounds legit


    Way to bump this one!

    Hope you heal fast and are spinning relatively comfortably soon.
