    Minus 26 Celsius this morning. Went to an unheated indoor mx track on the 250. Had a blast but the woods suspension was a little soft for the application. A good cure for cabin fever. Pretty cold on the hands though.

    Ouch, sorry to hear about the leg. Were you wearing MX boots too? Sounds painful.:eek:

    Did the tib/fib thing 10 years ago. I was back working in 6 weeks, riding and then racing in 3 months. Get better!

    Yes I was wearing mx boots, (Gaernes) Doc said it looked like a twisting injury so I don't think any kind of boot would of helped. They did at least hold everything kind of in proper position. Now I'm sporting a titanium connecting rod, just wish it was in my motor instead of my leg :)

    I hope you're right. At 53 everybody is telling me it is going to take a long time to heal. Doc did tell my wife I could take her dancing in three months. I hope he is right, the way she has been taking care of me she deserves it.

    I did the same thing and the doc said without the mx boots, it would have been a MUCH worse outcome.

    I'm curious, the doc said I have a choice to leave the stuff in or remove it after healing but before a year is up. My thoughts are to remove the screws so there are no holes in the bone, maybe a lil stronger and can't back out or break in the future. What did you guys do?

    I still have my stuff in (been about 4 years now). I really don't see a need to take it out personally. The doc said there was the possibility that if I did something and hurt my leg again, the rod could bend and be quite painful. My reply was that if I managed the bang up my leg that bad that I probably have more serious problems.

    My buddy had a very similar break but they put a plate on his and he just recently got his taken out. I think the plate was more of a bother than the rod though.
