Cows, screws and frustrations
FYI: 3½ months after the cow incident in Moz, screws might do the trick to help the scaphoid fracture to heal.. off to hospital soon.. and off my bike for another 8 weeks!

Re: Cows, screws and frustrations
Hang in there.
Hospitals and operations are not good under the best of circumstances.
Hope you heel up real soon.
"off the bike for another 8 weeks"...... now this one, she is very bad news

Re: Cows, screws and frustrations
Able to ride your bike 8 weeks goes by so fast, but unable to ride 8 weeks is a loooooooooooong time! But the re-appreciation for your bike after 8 weeks will be something else!
All the best with the operation. I’m sure it will go well!

Agree with all - 8 weeks might seem long - but time does go by and before you know it you will be back on the wheels again. Sterkte en Voorspoed.

Get well soon and the op is not a reason not to be on the forum. Maybe we must get a chaufeer with a sidecar?

Good luck, Dani.
But you will obviously not be gone for 8 wks? You still can type cleverly well with one hand!
Will be taking my bike tomorrow for a ride after 10 days rest. Also had a little op in the left hand a week ago. Funny how one misses the use of a thumb when there is a problem. Couldn't even operate the speedo cruise on the RT.
Now it's OK again

Re: Cows, screws and frustrations
the op over then?
hope all is well......fully bionoc now, better than before.
On the bright side, "statistics" show, in those 1 in 5 000 000 chance of hitting the tie down of a cow, metal is much more resistant than bone

5 months of discomfort, but finally the cast is off!!
Hand is weak but ready to ride!
- and my normal glove will fit again!
