sadly i got some bad news too.
Well the good news is, i have been given permission by my doctors to start riding my bikes again. No more jumping the moto or any hard DH type stuff but atleast i can get out there and ride again.
The bad news is,(and the reason for the good news) that they can't do a whole lot to fix my wrist properly. The bones have heeled, the cartilage is coming along pretty well, but i have snapped a ligament or two in my wrist area. The biggest problem is one of the snapped ligaments holds the two fore arm bones together and this is why the outside one keeps popping out of joint. They can't reco it, they have to fuse the joint completely to fix it and thats not really an option at my age. So i've been told to go out and carry on with life as normal, keep it strapped when riding etc, and hope for the best. :?
Anyway, i'm no longer selling any of my bikes, i'm going riding this weekend, and i'm generally in a better mood than i have been for the last 7 months. Thanks for putting up with my negativity and sobbing while i've been on here, should be a little different from now on.
Thanks for all the support guys.
BTW, it wouldn't let me post this in the OTD forum again..
