maybe the wrong type of crowd here but maybe you should give meditation/Yoga a bit of a crack. Passes the time like nothing else if you do it right and does wonders for conserntration.
but if your after some more manly stuff I propose some kind of bear/ lion hunting trip, but the catch is you can't kill em and you can't leave Australia. therefor I expect several caged lions and or bears at my doorstep in exactly one week. oh yeah, and you must also use only a pink butterfly net to catch said animals.
OK, go...
 
Tried going fishing but cant tie knots with my left hand!

so I ended up starting a rear bar for my 4wd I can still weld although not with the mig, so back to stick welding

However, that might attract some interesting stares, and maybe some form of disease.
 
I cut part of my right thumb off just under the middle knuckle leaving about an inch of thumb.

You will still be able to do everything - I still ride a dirt bike and have standard shifters on my mountain bike.

The biggest problems are trying to shift down more than 1 gear at a time cause I physically cant push the lever round more than 1 click and on long technical downhills where you are constantly on the front brake.

Occasionally it causes a bit of a hiccup but its nothing compared to what others go through.

Some other issues are the cold in winter and the skin being extremely sensitive on and around the scars.

Does leave you open to make up cool stories about how it happened though.

Good luck with everything.
 
grow weed, sell weed, have fun......? Just think, buy the time your able to ride again or go back to work, you'll be like fully pimped, if you sell at the right price;)
 
Yep, I've kept my technical Lego for 30ish years. My wife and I have spent many a healing period/rainy weekend, lit up and creative.
 
It is amazing how everything has always already been discussed on rotorburn. I have just started a very similar thread discussing shifter options for missing thumbs (warning i have included some gory pics);

It is also great to know that BLKFOZ is able to keep hitting it after a similar injury. I am two weeks into a min 5wk recovery and boredom has been aleviated thus far by being on a heap of prescription meds, hot young nurses and the winter olympics (as i am a skiing freak), once the ice skating starts and boredom kicks in I will be following this thread intently for more advice.

Good luck and hope your recovery goes well.
 
I broke my right collar bone 2 weeks ago, get on a stationary bike, you don't even need to hold on, I blasted away an hour yesterday like nothing else. I'll be good when you get back on the bike too. Sorry about doggy left hand typing ha.

This one is good, you can set a password so they can never unsubscribe.

i post for two reasons, suck it up mate its a thumb you'll live. theres alot more to life then working and riding bikes. go out side, go for a drive, long walks on the beach etc. but remember, you have to rest if you want good results later on, its 1-2 weeks of sitting about, which will pretty much guarantee that you wont have any further complications, do to much, and you could loose your whole thumb to infection or something... keep it in mind.

having shattered my collar bone 3 weeks ago in japan, and still not being able to use my right arm at all shit gets frustrating. but i know sitting around doing nothing is the best for me to not cause any more damage.


and secondly,..


what was that link i REALLY want to use it. but it has seemed to have disapeared?
