Riding in plaster cast

I read it as pet tramp

I saw parapet. He has his own castle. Lucky cunt.

Parapet in polish means a window sill. I think jumping through the window can be bit drastic and unnecessary. It will heal eventually.

Typical Polish.. stealing English words and not having the decency to get them right.

At least they come cheap!

What he said...

many moons ago i was told by a doctor not to play five a side football for at least six weeks (after removal of a plate from my hip) didnt heed the advice ,it cost me 3 months lying on my back ,eating, pissing and shitting in a hospital bed
DO AS THE DOCTOR TELLS YOU

Yes, just another vote for not riding with a broken wrist. It's really not a good idea. Save yourself for the rest of your life.

I'm now just hoping the when the cast comes off riding won't become painful for my wrist on anything other than smooth roads and the track

At least they cum quickly!

fixed.

It must have been very disappointing for you, James.

Typical James, lowering the tone again!

At least you were gentle....

Anyway, you not that attractive as I thought at first when you turned up in those lycra bibs. Are they size too small?

I broke my wrist early this year and started riding after the first few days. I didn't ride fixed though because there was no way I could grip the bars. I rode geared mostly one handed.

However, my wrist still hurts at times and I don't have full range of movement. Don't know if the bike had anything to do with it as I did a lot of other stupid things. I do regret it and hope it doesn't cause real lasting damage.

this should help..........

+1 ;)

once the docs give you the all clear, i recommend some granny bars with a big old rise. when i shattered my elbow i started back on them, it took lots of the weight off the arms. gloves with gel pads are good for vibration too.

If you can get hold of a geared bike, riding that one handed for a while or just resting the hand on the bars would be fine. Breaking your leg is a whole other story!

it will be painful because you hasn't bend your wrist for several weeks.

i broke my scaphoid 2 years ago when i was run over,
yes i cut the thumb off the cast with a saw so i could ride
yes, it plays up now.
don't regret it, i would do anything not to spend an hour on the buses with 50 noisey kids etc...especially in the height of summer
when i went to the hospital for the second x-ray, my doctor asked me if i rode i bike
i said yeah why
he said i saw you lock it up outside this window :)
don't do it.

I rode past a woman cyclist in Canonbury Square yesterday. She was carrying a couple of large carrier bags as she cycled and as I passed her I noticed that she had a plaster cast on her foot and ankle. I was most impressed.

How about riding gently with the arm strapped up?

Fat Joe, you have my sympathy. I broke my scaphoid a few weeks ago and I've had to have an operation to pin the two halves together. I was fantastically frustrated by not being able to ride and skeptical about the doctor's advice to stay off the bike: I thought they were just being overly cautious and knew nothing about the fury of being forcibly parted from my lovely bike. But no!!! The forum set me straight on that point (http://www.londonfgss.com/thread33268.html#post1065371)

My advice - stay off the bike, get used to running and do whatever the experts say to get your wrist healed. As so many people have said here and elsewhere on this site; a few weeks (even a few months) off the bike now vs. a lifetime of pain = no decision at all.

BTW I have an appointment in 3 weeks and I just pray that the bone has started to knit by then, which should mean I can look forward to ditching the Oyster card and getting back on the bike.

I feel for you squirrel, it hasn't even been a week and Im'm going mad. I have another X-ray this week so hopefully it wont be as bad as first thought, I really don't want to be in a cast over Christmas.

I have my fingers crossed for your appointment to go well so you can get back on your bike. I hate seeing my bikes and knowing I have to walk. It will make riding even better when I get to ride again.

...I have my fingers crossed...

Probably not advisable under the circumstances.
