Strechered The Fuck Off

What happened? Broken leg, arm?

interesting new polo bike emilie....

WTF happened??

collar bone.
em collided with the goal post!

is his leg bound as well, or is that an emilie-style fashion accessory?

Get well soon you crazy fool.

his leg was already fucked to start with, hence the brace.
we were shouting at him to pull a skid or a wheelie while they were taking him away. don't think the paramedics would've been having any of it tho.

heal quickly Em - do you need someone to look after your bike? I'll chuck some brakes and a freewheel on and it's ready to go

tbh wayne i think he'd probably still ride it in a full body cast.

oh man, get well soon em you nutcase
xx

oh dear god not again
my poor em :(

hes fine nothing 5 weeks of public transport wont fix... F.U.C.K. get well soon.

Damn ! heal up soon.

Any bike damage ?

Must have hurt for them to let you have a go on the oxygen bottle.

Can I be the first to throw in a speculative 'HTFU' ?

And do you think it is too early in the thread for a 'racist' ?

Good god, get well soon man.

verbally already done... and when the stretcher was pulling out ...

'do a skiiid!'
'do a wheelie'
Fair play he came back arm in sling... and strongbow in hand

Excellent ! You can finally get Strongbow on the NHS !?

racist

Man, sorry to hear that dude!

Get well soon.

How can you say that, some of my best friends are alcoholic drinks.

get well soon man.

shit! you're more accident prone than my little brother.

get well soon.

sheeesh,hope you heal soon em.

Heal The Fuck Up.

I know you'll be riding again imminently . . .

Get well soon (you still owe me a wheel build) :)

That sucks, you surely need some good luck to come your way, how bad is the break? Do you heal quickly? Did they give you one of those funky blue foam slings? Where did they take you, Royal London? When is your fracture clinic appointment?

made a reeeeal bad noise, i was sat 20 meters away and it sounded 'smashy', like glass or somethin. heal up fast matey.

i thinks its lager or cider.

For those who hasn't seem object's new beauty.

God in his wisdom gave you two collar bones, you'll be alright fella ;)
Get betterer soon.

I am sooooo never going near the polo court other than as a spectator.

tough luck dude. on my clavicle break, i was strong enough to support my weight after about 4wks but some restricted movement. there is no standard...but if you're lucky you could be back on that shtty* bike after 2wks. surgeons concluded on my 12th wk xray that the break would never fuse back together. arm and shoulder are functioning ok so no biggy.




*seriously. very nice bike there. love the matte black + sublime highlights of the pink.

Oh dear. Nice bike Em, can I borrow it?

geez, what people do for attention!! and for drugs!! :p

What can I say?

Accidents happen. I'm not exactly worried, You know I'll be fine.
Thanks for all of the kind words (not you dogs).

As I was playing polo I was on the surly which is hard as nails. I don't think it even got scratched. The whole impact was in the centre of my right clavical. Felt and heard it go. Got off the bike, snapped it back into place. The laughing gas and morphine sorted the pain. Haven't had any painkillers since yesterday and still slept most of the night. It's uncomfortable but the foam sling is good enough.

My fracture clinic appoinment is on Monday. It's a clean break so I'm not expecting to need it plating and pinning. Which is almost a shame really ;]

Typing with one hand is tedious and I suspect I'll shed a tear or two everytime I look at my new bike and can't go riding. I've locked all of my bikes and Scott's got the keys so I can't be stupid (He doesn't take bribes so don't even ask ;] ).

I'm going to be off work for a while so won't be online often, hopefully I'll still make some social drinks though ;]

Peace y'all

you couldv'e at least done your knee, so you could help scott with making bags!

I think my legs have had enough trauma in the last year.
Need to share the pending arthritis around my body for later life.
