Gutted sj! What did you bruise? Sounds pretty similar to my experience on the practice day...

Thigh, hip and shoulder, they thought I'd fractured the femur and/or hip, luckily not though!
I'm just annoyed that I didn't get my race! Angry

We thought I might've fractured me femur too...how weird. I didn't have the hip and shoulder bit though! How bad is your leg? Is it still dead? As I thought I was recovering quickly, but the nerves repaired themselves and I was back in agony after a few days, been on crutches for the last two weeks.

Another lad came down in the medic van just after me with exactly the same injuries, they were buty with crashers today!
It's pretty painfull and I have a loss of sensation in the centre of the bruise (it's about the size of a grapefruit).
That's pretty bad though!  Embarrassed

Gotta watch out for that, make sure you rice it, there's a risk of fluid going hard and stuff. Mine didn't swell as I think it was intramuscular, so the muscle was torn with the sheath, letting fluid escape.
Still, heal up soon! It might take a while, I don't know how long I've got left before I can ride  :'(

yeah, make sure you really do rest that properly. Dead legs (proper ones, not pansy ones, you will understand if you have had them) require a good few weeks physio/massage to avoid the risks of new bone calcifying. Someone in our year played rugby with a dead leg from the last match and he ended up having to get the newly formed bone removed by operation, not good.

Am I right that that would only apply if there's swelling/bruising/fluid collecting? My GP said it shouldn't be an issue for mine.

Unfortunately I didn't get to race yesterday due to our visit to A&E. But thats the nature of the beast.

A lot of people were nailing themselves yesterday in the morning. The track felt nice too after the mud fest that was Saturday.

On a bonus point, thats the first time i've ridden my bike this year without getting a puncture!!!

Can we pre-book some A&E slots?

Still off to France i hope?

Yes, thankfully no broken bones, but I can imagine a few weeks of pain for her. It's going to be one hell of a bruise! Reading up a bit on deep bruising it looks like it will take a while to heal. She's off to the doctor today to see if she can be refferred to her PMI & see if they can help speed up the healing somehow.

Think you were parked in front of use yesterday - I recognised your bike! How did you get on?

Bloody awful! 2 quality crashes on every run bar my last race run, best comedy crash was a front flip into the trees on the finish double.  Last run, took it really easy (in other words was too tired to hold the handlebars) and got down without a crash.  I didn't even look at the time and don't really care, it was a mint day, without major injury.

Bring on Mynydd Du.
