Hmmm, your attitude is amazing! I'd be all crying in my spilled milk.

Heal up quick! At least the rest of the ride was good.

Oh Kirsten, sooooo sorry to hear! Hope it doesn't hurt too much. As always you're taking it like the champ you are.

Bummer Zoom Zoom. But it's lots of fun to see the look on people's faces when they assume that you probably tripped over a curb and you get to tell them that you broke it mountain biking. People think you're really tough then

Heal fast. The first few weeks are the hardest. It starts getting easier after that.

They asked in the ER how I broke it, then asked if I was in good physical health...hello!!!

My biggest worry is that this will make me gunshy. I've always felt sorta bombproof--lotsa falls and lotsa bruises and scrapes, but nothing serious. I don't always bounce, i guess.

Thanks, ladies. I may be mentally less ok with this if i cant at least run in a couple of weeks. i may join the little 24/7 gym to walk on the treadmill (to avoid icy roads) or ride the recumbent stationary bikes.

Elliptical machines are a great cycling substitute for me. Feels like climbing.

I never really liked them in the past, but that may be my way to best keep both my running and biking fitness up.

Sorry to hear this Zoom, hope you have a quick recovery! Yeah, I dislike the cardio machines as well but they are certainly better than the alternative
