Friday, Nov.5th--2 park loop

Hey everyone, thanKs for all of you well wishes. I'm currently at morriston memorial in the Icu. Matt, thanks for comming so fast to get me after my crash and bringing my car home for me. Patty and Robbin thanks for scraping me up off the ground. It was a great ride up till that point. The jump was only 2 feet high, just got cockeyed in the air, landed sideways and got body slammed to the hard dirt road. I broke 7 ribs, one in two places, and the collarbone. I just found out that I need surgery today on it. Probably will be in
the hospital for 2 to 3 days. I was 6 miles from reaching a personal goal of 500 mountain miles fot the year. Thanks again everybody,

Dave
 
Good luck Dave! Hopefully you'll heal up fast, you were due for a rest week or two🙄

Hi Dave,
Not sure I have ever met you, but glad to hear you are doing better -- earlier posts sounded pretty scary.

I broke my left collarbone in 2 plcs early this summer at Mahlon (OTB). Had surgery 7-2-10 because it was pretty severely displaced (2 plates and a bunch of screws installed). I was back on the bike riding Kingdom Trails VT by the end of August. I didn't have the rib injuries you sustained (those can be painful) but just wanted to let you know the clavicle repair worked out well.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
