Doctors! Pah! According to the doctor I shouldn't ride the bike or abseil with my arm in a cast - no way I was having with his crap!

Admittedly, a properly immobilised broken wrist is trivial compared with what Crashe has gone through (healed a lot quicker, too), but the principle is the same - it is we who inhabit our bodies and we have a better idea of what we can handle than any other person - even a doctor.

Good on ya mate.

Listen to your bod as you have been - it'll let you know when and how much.

May we all have the liberty of riding safely.

Well done, enjoy, be carfeul and above all else get some wrist action in order to build up your strength again.

Nice one Crashe, good to hear you're back on two wheels again, see you out soon girl.

Take it easy though.

hhhhhmmmmm the KB "Camp Mother" (I just had to sorry mate) ignores all the advice she would give to other KBers about riding before the doc says its ok.

Good on ya!

If you up for it I could potter down tomorrow arvo and race you around the block to the dairy. Give me a yell (or a text) if you up for it

Finally, I thought you had lost the plot when you turned up to that KB ride last week in your cage!

Enjoy life now that you've got your *freedom* back crashe!

**surfchick** · 1st July 2005, 21:08

arrrrright!!

**crashe** · 2nd July 2005, 10:00

Hmmmm "Camp Mother" indeed...PMSL....

No Zed I aint lost the plot just yet....hehehehe

Ok time to go for another wee spin around the block....lol.

Im thinking of going up the nor-western, along greenheithe.
See how I am doing, maybe go to Albany and then back down the motorway... over da bridge and home...

Now that is going around da block... cos its a circle.....so to speak...hehehehe

**crashe** · 2nd July 2005, 16:46

WOHOOOO I did 100kms all up today...

I got to Albany, and I thought what the heck, Whangarparoa is only just up the road...

So off I rode... and txt'd MadDuck to see if she has a ice cream in her freezer or whether I needed to go on to Orewa... hehehe.

So that was a nice stop for the ice cream and a cuppa...

Headed back down the motorway over da bridge and stopped at a mates on the way home.

On the ride up to Whangarparoa today, I did pass a few bikes going the other way... I waved and they waved back.

But, there was one bike that overtook me just before Whangarparoa...
They overtook me, a car and two trucks right on the brow of a hill and then there was the double yellow line... I dont know how they could see if anything was coming towards them.

It was a nice ride today, as it was sunny, just going at the pace of other cars etc... a real nice cruisey ride as I wasn't in any rush.

You know after being off the bike for 8 weeks, it does take a bit to get into the hang of it again.

Now feeling a tad tired.... but thats ok as I have to build up the kms slowly and get the tum and leg muscles working again...
One doesnt realise just how much one uses those muscles when riding.

But it was an awesome day to be out there riding.

**MadDuck** · 3rd July 2005, 20:50

Geez dont tell them all I got ice cream and cups of tea dammit they all want to head up here. Oh and its spelt Whangaparaoa

Crashe made me feel so damn guilty about the gardens growing in my gutters I spent the day on the roof cleaning them out. Should have been out riding!!!

Great to see you out and about on that bike mate. Look forward to the next KB ride. Damn not long before you wanting to tackle the Loop again.
