We'll that is the shits. The break in the smaller circle is I think your scaphoid. I broke mine doing motorbike stuff 20 years ago, had it pinned and it is still shit and will always be. Better luck to your recovery.

OUCH. Hope they can fix it up for you.

**yungatart** · 9th October 2013, 08:10

That looks nasty! Good luck with your recovery Chappy.

**Dogboy900** · 9th October 2013, 08:40

Shit unlucky!
Hope you heal well

Nah, thats the top of the ulna in the little circle. Scaphoid is a kinda funny bean shaped bone in the middle of the wrist above that.
Didn't appear to have fractured mine, but tore the scapho-lunate ligament a few years back. Given me no end of trouble since!

Oh bro!
Had not heard.
Back to "School" I guess then eh?

A mate raced speedway over in England, on race he went down on the back straight, his arm was sucked up between the rear mudguard and the tire, pulled the other rider down with him. Broken wrist. He cut his cast off and raced again a couple weeks later.

Another way of looking at it is:
VERY LUCKY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sometimes you can not control what other riders are doing around you. Sometimes they make mistakes....
Sometimes it ends up pretty badly..... I guess that is motorcycle racing...

In this case there was a wheel doing about 200 km/hr right where Chappys hand was heading....
Lucky for Neil his arm didn't go through it, just over it.....

To be clear it was NOT Neil's fault that he crashed into somebody. I will leave it at that as it could get heated......

"So..... when are you going to move up to a class where they can ride properly???"

Sucks when questions like that come back to bit you...

Rest up mate...
