    photos), will hopefully be back on the unicycle in 2-3wks. Was back on
    the bike over the weekend...felt great 🙂

  12. I, too, am still amongst the disabled. I broke my right ankle on Dec
    29, 2005, on my 3rd day of learning to ride. Had surgery to put it
    back together (plate on fibula with 6 screws, 2 interfracture screws in
    fibula, and 2 screws securing the broken off chunk of the tibia
    maleolus) on January 10, 2006. The forecast 6 weeks in a cast
    following the surgery turned into 11 weeks because of an eighth inch
    gap in part of the fibula fracture. Finally got out of the cast on
    March 29. I'm wearing shoes and walking without crutches now, although
    I can't walk far, fast, or gracefully!

    The muscles in my right foot and leg were appallingly week after 3
    months in a cast. I'm now doing daily exercises to regain range of
    motion and riding my stationary bike to build strength.

    I'm looking forward to resuming my unicycling attempt, although I will
    admit to being somewhat intimidated by the downtime, dismaying expense,
    and painful trouble this broken ankle has caused. (I have been sitting
    on the unicycle while hanging from a bar, just to keep my hand in!)
    When I do get back on board for real I'll be wearing ankle supports and
    dressing up like the "Pad Queen" herself.

    Wow. That's the kind of news we hate to hear. I admire your spirit
    though, since you have not given up. If you go back to trying, find a
    tennis court. The fence is good for holding onto and the court is
    smooth and flat.

    Hope you heal well. At our age, that kind of bodily injury cannot be
    good.

    Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total
    obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and
    through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see
    its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will
    remain.

  18. I'm out now too I guess, havn't been to the doctor yet so no official
    word but my heal is super swollen and I can't put pressure on it and my
    left palm has been swollen and lumpy for a couple weeks now, I just
    sprained that wrist today, cut up that pinky, and that ring finger is
    also swollen for some time.

    The sad thing is that I just bent my seat, my cranks are shot, my
    pedals are shattered, my rim has a flat spot and my seat cover has two
    huge holes in the back kevlar.

    But on the upside I got many of the bails on film and I got the footage
    of the double four set that caused all of this. (although I didn't like
    the angle much 🙁 )

  19. I've had a pulled rib in my back for the entire month of september, and
    it's still bothering me alot. I keep going to the chiropracter to get
    it re-set but my musctles keep pulling it back out.

    This is the third consecutive rib I've pulled out. The first one was
    early 2005, then I did another one the first day of NAUCC, then this
    one sept. 1st.

    🙁
