    Dude...your pubic tubercle and pubic symphysis have closed in on your obturator foramen. Gotta watch that stuff.

    @Mikie, if you go back and crack the other side, we'll update your subpubic angle to something lower and slacker. That looks a little steep.

    Mikie doesn't look like that.
    He doesn't wear a full face helmet and goggles.

    If you are referring to outside visual damage, my right arm I think I used to stave off the tree helped little and only proved the bark is tougher than my epidermis. Starts at the wrist and flows nicely up to my shoulder and down my right side. I don’t have the energy to take a pic.

    @scan, I was just corrected by Mrs. Watson who was paying better attention to the Doctor. Apparently these are the two fracture location... which I can tell you feels more correct.

    I was going to have surgery, but that was for internal bleeding. But by the time All the test came back the second time, the bleeding had stopped in the Cat Scans.
    The doctor said it was most likely the Tailwinds...:sneaky::whistling:
    No surgery now. Just need to go to PT and get signed off by The Orthopedist.

    Did you suggest Crazy Glue or Gorilla tape over the fractures to your doctor so that you could start riding sooner? :whistling:

    They cut my Kokopelli Jersey off...:cry: I kept it.
    When they were getting ready to cut off the Lycra shorts that’s where I drew the line. I said, “Guys, these are $80 bucks, they will slide right off!”

    They got a sheet to cover me as they slid them off but they were too late and a nurse got a visual. All she could say was, “Oh my!” :):whistling:

    When I suggested it, the doctor said we don’t do ghetto tubeless type repair work here. We be legit. So I knuckle bumped him and let it go as I was too weak to argue.

    I got anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks. Seems that 6 weeks is the normal bone regeneration time. :(
