One week out and I'm definitely on the mend. I already have my new helmet, and my bike only needed the wheels trued. This was easy for me to get fixed since I am the manager of bike shop!

I was still having great difficulty with my wrist/hand. I returned to my primary on Tuesday - of course more x-rays. They came back negative so off to an Orthopedic specialist. He took one more shot this morning and found a break on the Hamate bone (one of the two Carpal tunnel area bones). At least now I know why it is still bruised, swollen & hurting.

I still have our first woman's ride scheduled Saturday. Since it is only a leisurely ride (geared to beginners) fo 8 miles, I will probably ride my frankenstein bike (very ugly, commuter bike). This would probably be more comfortable one handed since it is a little more of an upright position.

Ride safe.
