dirt dame 561 Posted April 20, 2010 Still waiting on KTMrads phone call. I called him earlier but had a bad connection. We'll get out there as soon as possible, though. The sooner the better. Woo hoo, this is my 5000th post! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bikeslut 1 Posted April 20, 2010 Kris- not to cheer you up or anything, but you DO know that a bad sprain (in my experience any way) is worse than a nice clean break, right? I smashed my ankle badly one time in a freak surfing incident...dislocated, and broke a bone...serverely sprained due to the sublux (it was popped out for over an hour). The sprain still hurts to this day...you can see where the borken bone sticks out (I...uh...removed the cast so I could go on a mountain biking vacation...bone didn't set right)...point is...the area that broke feels fine. The sprained side still hurts. Don't discount the seriousness of your injury just because it is a sprain Mimi/Rad...if you want to go pick it up tomorrow, I can make myself available to help out. Try to ride it out...bring some pulleys and some rope...whatever Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTMrad 513 Posted April 20, 2010 Slut, I hope to go out Tuesday. Don't need rope or anything to get the bike out.......I'll ride it out to Split Mountain, then we'll load it on Mimi's jeep, if she can go tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kris 0 Posted April 25, 2010 Well the swelling and stiffness have subsided considerably. I can move my ankles around pretty good but everything is still pretty sore and I think my heals are bruised pretty good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kris 0 Posted May 8, 2010 Hello everyone I went to a specialist this week and got some more x-rays. He told me my ankles were fine but I had two fractured heels. He told me to stay off of them for six to eight weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
