If you have read the football board, I alluded to this a couple of times. No car hit me this time. I crashed without getting hit by something. I was going downhill very fast. A man was walking his little runt of a dog (in the road by the way). his Yorkie runt of a dog decided to dart in front of me. I swerved and braked hard. I went over the handlebars and slammed and bounced down the hill. I went to urgent care, they only did X-rays. Broken elbow, sprained wrist and injured shoulder. I have an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon tomorrow morning. Probably need an MRI. I am not in pain if I just sit still. It is when I move when it hurts a lot. Mainly in my shoulder. It is my right arm this time.
Hey man, just saw your reference to tough week in the gameday thread and went searching for what happened. Very sorry to hear about your crash. Given the idiots that drive around here I'm surprised any bikers ever ride on the road. (I've also seen plenty of idiot bike riders who swerve in / out of traffic and come out of nowhere, too). I've also seen plenty of dog-walking-in-the-road idiots, too. What's wrong with people? Common sense is a superpower!
Silver Comet Trail might be a better choice
... I know it's more my speed!
Anyway, Godspeed to you and hope all heals properly and quickly!
