10 min on the bike: $40
1.5 h at urgent care: $120
a weekend of undisturbed us-time with hiking with your loved one: priceless

For the actual ride: 90 deg, slight downward slope, gavel, rider error, right thumb used to stop forward momentum...

:roll:

I like the pics and how they tell yer story. :mrgreen: Sedona is a place whose fuckyou-up potential is often underestimated...I've taken some SERIOUS falls there in the past.

I blame some of it, at least, on the mind blowing beauty, and the natural color combos. They just take my eyes off of the upcoming stair step switch backs, and such.

Not clear, yet. Doc's going to do a functional re-evaluation next week, but the right thumb feels pretty stiff. Couple of weeks at least.

Andy, that cracks me up. I've had that same discussion many times. Heal up soon bro.

I rode with those MBH guys a few years ago and I think they were trying to kill me but I made it and had a great time. They are a "smoking" crew.

What a bummer!!

I hope you didn't drive all that way to only get to ride for 10 minutes! Sedona is the best, though a little hot right now. Did you at least find some good eats/bars while you were there?
