Aaaah vark!! Nasty.

Best wishes for the recovery.

(You going to share the morbid details? Where, what were you doing, did you ride home...)

Thanks, i was doing brake checks well riding a jump line. Front brake locked up when i braked lightly for a corner just after i landed off a jump. My wrist got bent at 70 degrees and the bone made a nice puncture. They also cutted my fav mx top up to get to wrist. Had a dh race this weekend and was testing my bike after rebuild. Well now im in a hostoptil. Doc said i can start ride light xc in 6 weeks so least i can ride a bit
