Hey there, I'm the new guy

Anyways, here's my most recent video of me mountain biking. Now, I admit that I'm a total retard in this video, but I'm not afraid to share it. In fact, I encourage y'all to look at it.

I was biking at Calaveras two weeks ago, when this happened:

The consequences were pretty severe. Arm broken in three places (Broken elbow, broken wrist, and fractured Ulna). Yes, I know I should have leaned back hahahah

Well, that seems to be the place to eat it. One of our resedient marsupials looped it out there..gosh I think close to the same time frame you did, although our marsupial friend walked away relatively unscathed. I hope you heal well, remember...Pain is Temporary.
When you do heal up, join us on some rides.
Heal well Tanner.

I'll try and go on a ride when I do finally heal. Unfortunately, though, I'm gonna be immobilized for some 6-8 more weeks. I suppose stupid really does hurt :lol:

Meanwhile, I'm gonna go nuts being stuck off my bike and out of my Kickboxing gym hahahah :evil:

Oh that was ugly. Hope you're okay now.

Ow!

Hope you heal up well. I broke my wrist pretty badly 2 years ago. Rehab is important to get range of motion back. Dr. Andrew Hartmann (orthopediac surgery) and Gaspar Physical Therapy (PT) are the bomb. If they are among your choices, I'd recommend you meet them.

Yes, yes, I know I should have :lol:

I wasn't expecting to go over that fast. I was surprised when I looked down at my speedometer right before going off and seeing that I was about to eat shit at 25 mph

As for what the long term effects of this might be, I have no clue. Hopefully I'll get more info on Wednesday from my trip to the doctors office.
