It was Fun Times!


This is the first real nasty injury I have received from bike-related causes. (surprisingly) I made the mistake of wearing slippy skate shoes on my mountain bike, they slipped on a jump and I got a bad gash in my shin from my nasty monster pedals.
Thank you Brandon for offering his tube sock as a makeshift bandage and blood-stopper! The main cut is not visible in any picture we have. But It is about 2 1/2 inches long, and deep enough to see the bone. There was a long debate about stitches, but we ended up using Bruce's nifty "surgical glue"
Hey! I just realized, mine and my dad's injuries both concern what shoes we wear! LOL

Sounded like it was fun times. I was like "Be happy and don't die!" and you were like "I am VERY happy. and I won't die." Being all happy and alive. . .Sounds like fun to me.

That is awsome I will take all of the credit for saving his leg though :-) hope it heals the right way.
