This is stacking up to be an interesting ride, with dares and prizes and limoncello. Makes my mankini seem a little tame!
(unless I bring the fur-lined one - for warmth of course

**Timmeh:P** · 23rd July 2013, 12:03

Accommodation all booked!

Limoncello?... is he the fourth Tenor?
There will a dare posted before the ride I am sure of that, which may or may not include exercise and undies

FFS! Following on from my history of breaking myself prior to these rides, I find myself with a poxy cast on my left wrist

I have managed to tear my Scapholunate Ligament. Dont ask! Will be min of 6 weeks, hopefully only 2 in a full cast at this stage

ooo ouch!! That sucks Anne

I'll hopefully have my cast off my left hand by the time the ride comes around, but still won't have a bike

You really don't have much luck do you?

Bummer!

At least with a wrist in plaster you can still pillion.

Wristy business

but on the other hand, it's only a thumb.
At least it's just a tear not a break. And being the clutch hand, it may need a workout in 4 weeks anyway

I am a bit gobsmacked to be honest, stupid injury and one that anyone could suffer. You just don't know when you are going to get pinged.

Thank goodness for that, also Mark has a bike I can pillion on too if it comes to that, I hope not.

They say a min of 2 weeks in a cast, then a recheck. If it has settled then I get a removable splint for 4 weeks. Not sure that using a clutch will be on the allowable list of things to during that time though

Bum, bum, poohs and wees with lots of cheese is all I can say about it really.

Crap, sounds absolutely Scapholunate-ly tear-rible! And the cast has the pox? Worse and worserer...hope it heals up quickly.

You could always fit a centrifugal clutch, or just do clutchless shifts then you only have to use it at intersections.

My last bike had a worn clutch and I got very proficient with clutchless shifting, now that is thinking right there. I am quietly confident that it will be healed enough to ride

Never got that last part though. Because if I got hit by a bus the state of my underwear would probably not be a high priority.

On the Saturday Morning, do you want to meet us at Onewa Domain carpark opposite the Poenamo Tavern on Northcote road?
