george c Posted May 1, 2009 #1 Posted May 1, 2009 well there will be no ridding for me. I went and broke my left hand at work yesterday. the doc. is telling me that i am looking at 6 week or moor. i just can't stand the thought of not ridding for 6 weeks. so we'll have to see what i can do to take my mind off ridding. see y'all George C. P.S. this one-hand typing sucks too
Venturous Randy Posted May 1, 2009 #2 Posted May 1, 2009 Well, that's a real bummer george. If you are going to break your arm at work, you need to do it about Christmas. RandyA
DragonRider Posted May 1, 2009 #3 Posted May 1, 2009 Maybe your wife could help you keep your mind off of riding somewhow.... well there will be no ridding for me. I went and broke my left hand at work yesterday. the doc. is telling me that i am looking at 6 week or moor. i just can't stand the thought of not ridding for 6 weeks. so we'll have to see what i can do to take my mind off ridding. see y'all George C.

similost Posted May 1, 2009 #4 Posted May 1, 2009 (edited) That's a REAL drag. Hope you heal FAST and well!!!! I broke my wrist in a fall.. turing too fast into a gas station laid way over and hit a bunch of loose gravel... That's beside the point... Point is, once my knee healed up enough to bend it (about a week) I couldn't stand it any more and would take off the splint (they seldom use a cast any more) and went riding... YEP.. it hurt.. but my knees were in the wind! Edited May 1, 2009 by similost
N3FOL Posted May 1, 2009 #5 Posted May 1, 2009 Hey, that sounds like workman's compensation at work. Hope you heal soon. Tell your workplace to get yourself a Trike loaner. At least you can still type on the computer. Regards.
Holly Posted May 1, 2009 #6 Posted May 1, 2009 I know that feeling, hope all goes well in the healing,
Rocket Posted May 1, 2009 #7 Posted May 1, 2009 I went and broke my left hand at work yesterday. Hope you heal soon. Tell your workplace to get yourself a Trike loaner. At least it wasn't the throttle hand.......
