Thanks to all those who helped me out Special big hug to nellie and les

Legs back to its original shape but very swollen.

I dont really remember exactly how I came off, but I do know it wasnt from being an idiot, I do remember seeing someone in front of me having touble and slowing right down to get past, I think going arounf the lhs would have been the smart move ....
Anyway, Im 100% sure it was a genuine accident and dont hold any grudges etc:
When they pin your leg, the pin goes from the underside of the knee to the ankle ....!!!
I thought it was like only 100mm long ...
Ill post the xrays after we scan them ....
Again cheers to the rescue people and aploogies for needing to be rescued (it really fucked up my day too)

OK, you're winning in the X-ray stakes.... Man that must have hurt... How long before Nellie (the trail ride angel) got some pain meds into you? Heal fast mate.......

**krad_nz** · 4th March 2010, 18:40

Damn, looks super painful!
Did your bike land on your leg and do the damage?

**RJM** · 4th March 2010, 18:44

Well I'm no doctor but I do believe that is a broken leg! Where abouts on the trail did this happen? Was it one not far into the ride on the right hand side of the trail?

All the best with the recovery!

**Reckless** · 4th March 2010, 19:04

OUCH !! Bet that freckin hurt!! hope they gave you something to smoke !! LOL!!!

Me an Noobi went back to check on your bike, we found it and started it about the 15K mark.
We where going to double up and go get it but back at base I think it was all sorted so we Left it to noobi to organinse!

Heal quick, your right thats a bloody long rod in there! Do they stick it right up the bone marrow??

Shit I think I'll ride a bit slower! if thats possible LOL!!!

The location is on the video I posted. Glenns orange bike is parked up against the fence on the left and Glenn is to the right down the hill. You'll see Noobie pull up and park against a log.
