    No more tri this year

    well...was strong and fit. saturday a commuter cyclist turned to see who was passing and instead of only turning his head, turned his bike and crashed into me. i went down hard. broke my helmet, collar bone, elbow, femur. doc says no compounds cause my very fit muscle mass protected bones. in wheelchair one month, and then start crutches,,,,etc etc, one hand typing. lots of pain. keeping up my spirits to heal well.

    Oh my goodness, that sucks!!!!!! You were sounding so ready for Alcatraz.

    I guess on the bright side all that work you have put in saved you from getting hurt worse, but geez... Oh man, I'm so bummed for you. Where's that speechless icon? Big hugs are coming you way.

    Oh man. (((((((tribogota))))))) So sorry that happened to you.

    Heal up quick, and make them give you better pain meds if you're hurting that much!
