Well if you wish we can treat it as an aberration.

Some of us have difficulty understanding you anyway at the best of times. Yes, communication is a two-way street but when it comes to losing it you are as able as any of us it seems. Please try to keep your posts free of direct insult and so on. Thats my job ... :naughty: and others moderate me.

Parts of this thread are now way off topic, which is fun and acceptable - present transgender questions to one side, let us not further insult women or men with small cocks or a liking for bathing in ketchup and get back to motorcycles. That, you do very well!

Thank you for your candour, I wish you well with your recovery - and having resisted prescription drug opiate dependency myself I know that story well, you are to be commended in not accepting that solution. Maybe tequila is a bit of a monster, try sips of a good brandy?

You are appreciated in all your difference MJH so stay with us as best you can. Poetry is a good outlet for anger I find.

I am sober now…..for now.

It fucking sucks….I fractured the radial in three places lost my footing on a sheet of ice and jammed it into the wrist, I passed out when I looked at it, the arm was bent.

I am very very ornery lately.

Are you getting good medical care? You are up to five weeks since your fall, so hopefully you're making some progress by now.

In any case, you've got friends in MyChinaMoto, and we're all rooting for you to get better soon.

I'll temporarily raise my "orneriness tolerance threshold" (OTT), so feel free to spleen out at me if you want. Hope you can give us regular updates on your healing.

I also apologize for my snide remark in another thread. Hope you can accept!

cheers and get well soon,
euphonius

Did you fall with a bike, Euphonius?

And tolerable recovery to everyone.

Afraid so, Mikko. Entirely self-inflicted. Broke both of my cardinal rules: No riding at night, and no riding at night especially if the weather is bad. Was following Slabo and his girlfriend across Kunming to their favorite mushroom restaurant, and was struggling to hold a decent line in chaotic traffic, poor pavement, and general unfamiliarity with the city. Still pretty new to the bike, and to motorcycling in general too. I probably applied a bit of front brake just as I was steering slightly, and she went down very quickly. Snapped my clavicle, and ended what up to then had been a great ride.

Hope to get the titanium shank out of my shoulder soon, maybe in April.

cheers

Oh, I am very sorry to hear that. Glad to see anyway you did not want to quit the riding.

It seems tarmac in China is lottery. People fall here and there.

motorcyclists fall. most get up and keep riding. i'm working on it. actually been out quite a few times, though i'm super cautious. another fall on an unhealed shoulder would not be clever.

cheers!

Well I guess taking that kind of damage after falling can make you cautious. You took some heavy damage. But there really is not too much to worry, and it is good to try ride relaxed. A bike requires so much controlling by rider that too cautious riding can make you unable to do things you need to do. If I were you, I would just be carefull to not crash on things and to not bend the bike too much on curves. Keeping good attention on tarmac especially on curves might be good too in case one could learn to spot that evil tarmac in China.

The best thing is that there is nothing wrong in riding your own speed. So take your time and let the speeders go. In theory if you need to ride fast then you are doing something wrong.

MJH,
Sorry to hear about your broken arm. It will heal.
