had a stupid accident over at glamis this weekend. to make a long story short, i broke my left clavical and busted up my shoulder really bad...i just wanted to remind everyone to be careful out there....i guess i'll be out for at least a month..well see ya!

 

OWCH!

Sorry to hear that... hope you heal up quick.

How did your bike fair?

 

Okay that was a little to short. How did it happen? GWS

 

Agreed, details?......lets hear the scoop......

Unless your too embarrassed to tell us......then you REALLY don't have a choice but to tell us. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

 

We need more info...

 

alright, alright..here are the details...3 of my friends and i were heading out to olds hill through the dunes right...we were in line following each others tracks..I was in the third spot and everything was fine...One of my friends is kind of a rookie at the whole duning thing so i kept looking back to see if he was still there...I turned back one more time for half a second and when i turned back forward my friends had stopped and turned very suddenly...I was only about 10ft behind them so I didn't have time to stop and if I would have turned i would have ran right into one of them...Anyway, I went over a cliff about 15ft...the quad nose dived and landed on the front left tire and thats the way it rolled over my left side breaking my clavi.....the first thing I thought about was if my rappy was okay, it wasnt until a couple minutes later that i felt the pain in my shoulder...the worst thing about it was that it was our first ride out!!

As for the rappy...seems okay, i rode it back to camp and didn't notice any trouble with it...but I'm gonna look it over again next week...

 

You got back on the quad, so you'll be fine with some time to heal.

get well soon.

 

damn, sorry to hear that, hope ya get better.

 

Glad to hear you made out OK, 15" is a good drop, especially if you dont even see it coming. Sucks when you wreck within the first little bit and the rest of the day is ruined.... I know that for sure, I dislocated my right arm 30 min after we got the bikes off the trailor a few months ago....... I was back on puttin around about 2 hours later after icing it...... By the way, what bone is your clavical, heard of it, just dont know where it is?? Crazy luck that the bike is OK, get better soon man!

 

Clavicle is the collar bone, part of the shoulder.
