A week ago in a group ride of about 60 riders I went over the bars when a girl touched wheels ahead of me went down. I didn't have time to stop and was over the bars. I landed on left wrist, urgent care diagnosed as a sprain, yesterday hand surgeon diagnosed a fractured nevicular, MRI next Thursday and fully expect a cast from above the elbow to the fingers for 6-8 weeks at least. You never realize how much you need two hands until you start to think about simple things like drying yourself after a shower, putting on socks, tying shoes, putting on deodorant. At least the hand surgeon is a cyclist so we talked more about bikes than my hand. He was impressed that I have a sling personalized by the Jensie.

Stay safe out there my friends, I'll be back out in about 6 months.
