how'd you do it,  i've a fullt healed one, and mine didn't split so yours sounds like quite a bad break, the first three weeks are hideous but you'll get used to it

unlucky, not great is it, broke mine last winter

Look on the brightside though, slings are damn useful as an extra pocket Wink

broke mine this afternoon in two places tweaking off a 20ft stepdown but not getting my front wheel straight enough. forks were too soft so they dived and i took a digger.
mine's broken in 2 places - i looked on the x-ray and it's just carnage, broken ends pointing all over the place. looks like i'm going to sleep really well. will hopefully get a photo of the x-ray at the fracture clinic tomorrow morning...

good luck, the first weeks the most painful, the 3-4th are the most boring and by week 5 and 6 your just flinching everynow and then.  Grin
