I was riding with my friends and turned left around a corner doing about 35-40 kmph and hit a patch of gravel... I knew what was coming and my wheels slid out from under me and i landed on my left side.
and this is my left calf... I also have a few little cuts on my left thigh. However even though these look impressive they aren't what is giving me grief.
The ambos said I hadn't broken anything so i went home and this morning when to my doctor who wisely got me some xrays and CT scans which showed that I do indeed have fractures.
I have this.... a L5 transverse fracture and my left sacrum is also fractured. so my arse is sore.
Please don't panic and tell me off... I got some good drugs (and to be honest one is kicking in now and I think I might just fall asleep ha.)
I have learnt a valuable lesson... don't speed and turn on gravel.
Wasabi is ok.... I asked about her straight up.. and checked her out today..... but she will go and see her doctor later in the week too for a checkup.
So 4 weeks off work to start with... he didn't say i couldn't ride.... but i cant see me doing that at the moment anyway :)
Sewing time will occur! but first Im having a nap zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
