Forum Rider Down and/or notification of minor incidents

Do you ever X-ray yourself for fun?

If I had access to an X-ray machine I don't think I'd take pictures of myself but random household objects.

I work in UCH A+E x-ray dept. Usually good but the triage nurse sounds a bit dismissive.

Wish I'd seen this earlier. I would have had you seen, x-rayed and out in 30mins. Not much good to you now but I can smooth the journey through A+E at any point if the arm keeps giving you grief?

Thats so awesome of you Mr Big, really renew's my faith in human nature, (and im not taking the piss), I work just up the road from you in the hostel on Endsleigh Gardens, no doubt you`ve heard of us (now I am taking the piss, lol)

Sometimes.

Sexy hips.

Ooof, nice splanchnic ganglion!

Did anyone see me get hit by a taxi on Oxford St last night around 6:30? It'd be good to know what happened...

Rider down, me hitting black ice and braking my hip on the road. Not nice and my first proper track season is maybe not going to happen.

Oh no- what sort of break?

Are you ok apart from that? Let me know if you need picking up/taking somewhere/etc.

You must've gone down hard. I thought I'd done that once and A&E told me that if you're middle-aged or younger and don't have a bone disease it's practically impossible. Hope you get fixed soon and aren't in too much pain.

Also, don't lean in the future.

Shit, Jim, that's bad news. How complex is the fracture, if you know? Really hope you recover soon!

Jeez, hope it's not as bad as it sounds. Was out this evening and the tarmac is vey wet around Tulse Hill and Streatham, couldn't help but think that it would freeze up a treat. Be careful everyone.

SheEeeeeeet

Sorry to hear it.

HealTFU

Thanks everyone, they say they might not have to operate, but are keeping me in till tomorrow so they can see if they want tho change their minds. DONT LEAN!

Ha! They've put me in holdsworth ward!

You couldn't make it up.

Oh no Jim! Sounds awful. Hope you get out and get better soon.

Fucksake Jim, we were only pootling along on a straight road too. I was expecting you both to get back up and carry on. One rider with a fractured hip and the other with a broken finger, that black ice is a bitch.

Hopefully it's not as bad as they think and you'll be back on the bike soon. HealTFU mate.

Jim. Htfu and fast. Sorry to hear this.

Baaaad news Jim! Heal up soon.

Obligatory "Fuck me Jim" comment. Heal the fuck up, you fuck cunt.

Bugger.

Sheet, hope you get better soon.

Where is this black ice?

shit, bad luck Hillbilly. hope you get good care there.

Just saw the email - Terrible luck Jim. Hope you're at least comfortable tonight.
