Yup, so i've finally broken something while riding Was racing at Gethin last weekend and on my last practice run before racing, i go over the bars on the very last corner and land straight armed (ie i didn't bend my right arm when landing) and now its er broken. I thought it may have just been bruised or strained so went up the top in the back of the dumper truck do do my race run, but then thought maybe not. so off to hospital i went where they said it should be operated on and have a screw in it. But seeing as we were 200 miles from home i came back here and off to hospital yesterday where i was expecting to be operated on, but they said the bone wasn't displaced enough, so its just in a half cast for now. Then off to hospital on next monday to make sure it is healing right, and if not then maybe and operation. I got a cast on for about  6 weeks then he said about 10 weeks before i ride properly again, so when we're out in morzine woop!! Heres the X-ray but you can't really see the break, its on the inside bone of your elbow (on the right in the X-ray), looks like it lopped the top of the bone off ...

unlucky charlie, i hate breaking stuff, hopefull my breaking stuff run is over with now... touch wood

hope it gets better soon

hopefully it will be alrite for france, but only just, so i won't be attempting anything too big, the cast will have been of for about 3-4 weeks prior to france so then its just physio and xc rides i guess to get my strength back up in that arm. My last exam is on th 2nd of june so 2 weeks timeish
but the cool thing is that there is no way i can ride dh so i'll be getting the sunday powdercoated, bew bearings and bushings etc. and basically give it a new colour scheme for when i start riding again, get the forks done too cos Gethin savaged them up and theres like no paint on em any more

haha probably true lol, but i was wearing armour with the straps that are spose to prevent broken collar bones so you get broken elbows instead lol.

i was thinking paint the forks white or black with silver boxxer decals, get a white or back e13 lg1 and paint the frame some wack colour like orange or baby blue or tuquoise or yellow, something away from the norm really and leave the rear end white or black

charlie i bet you said "ok lets go for our last run" before you did your last run...
beware ! never say that, it curses you

it was that tyre, stuck to the ground too much 

me and alex both said not to go for that run

any hoo hope you get better soon

you better be able to come to my party you f**ker!
it would be s**t without you!!
*waves fists*

looks like u f**ked boy, get better soon!
