Re: whats the longest youve been hurt???
I am going 6 months with a broken right wrist. Its my own fault, I rode for 2 months before I went to the doctors, then I cut the cast off after a week so I could do some shows. Oh well, whats another few months or so

Re: whats the longest youve been hurt???
while riding......3 weeks, a very deep bruise on my ileum(hip bone) on my right side......made walking very difficult, getting in and out of a car took forever. Picture is after 3-4 days, when bruise was starting to go away.
As for non-riding involved....have torn the medial meniscus in my right knee in football.....it only hurts with extended use or rest, and when the weather starts to change(barometric pressure).....my left shoulder dislocates, but I can reset it on my own now, ....my right wrist hurts everyday ride or take alot of notes at school....bruised ribs at least 3-4 times
Mostly ailments, but no broken bones! I'm lucky so far.

You should have posted how long someone had made it WITHOUT being
hurt... I'm almost a whole YEAR without breaking something or being torn
up with roadrash... that's a record for me!!!
As for Goose, you need to get an MRI on that... if you keep pinching a
nerve in there, you might lose the use of your hand etc... not a good
thing when you're only 20 something...
If you don't have any insurance, go to the hospital ER and tell them it
just happened... they will write off most of the bill if you have no $$$

Whats really going to suck is when they have 2 re-brake ur wrist to fix it... Or u can just be like me and what was once a fracture that hurt and didnt get fixed turns into 1/2 movement of ur wrist 4 the rest of ur life...
Worst injury... Shattered 18inches of my left femur. 3 rods, 6pins & 6screws later. Couldnt walk for 8months, couldnt run for 1 & 1/2 yr and still cant ride for ****...

Re: whats the longest youve been hurt???
I had a bad crash into a rock wall... 22 broken bones... I tried to get up
and everything was broken... arms, legs, neck, ribs... I felt like a chicken
that got run over by a truck.
It was really freaky trying to get up and everything was going the wrong
way... needless to say I wasn't right for months... hey, I'm still not right!!!
But don't ever ask me to give up riding.... :YEAH

Same here in my right elbow. Same thing in both knees as well. I've been dealing with it for 2 years. That is pretty much what you end up doing if you like stunting. Dealing with it. I cringe everytime I have to stick a leg out to catch the bike. Sometimes it holds.. some times it folds up sideways or backwards, it always gives me the old pop POP. CRIPPLE FO LIFE! heh
