Just thought Id post a thread lettin anybody whos got an injury or was hurt ridin that you may feel stupid or like a total s^#t right now, but it happens to the best of em. I had a cast on my arm for 6 weeks and now that I look back it feels like no time. I luckily didnt have it that bad, I Just hope that anybody whos hurt can get well soon n get back to doin what all of us on here love.
Heres me on my first ride since cast came off

I too just got the thumbs up from my doctor to get back on the quad. I stiff armed a landing while racing and shattered my wrist. In a cast for a month then the doctor decided to put screws and a plate in it. (Only because of 2 weeks after the original break I fell on it and broke it again) So I've been in a brace for the past 2 months. I am now sporting 6 screws and a 4 inch "L" shaped metal plate in my wrist. My wrist now costs more than my quad!:eek2:

BTW, TCracin440ex, how did you get hurt? Looks like you had a hard crash.:eek2:
