broken clavicle

[nhrider]

Okay...been some time since I updated. I still have no feeling around my shoulder area. It is just the skin and it isn't bad but I can "feel" it. What really hurts is when my daughter puts her chin on my collarbone. Man I see stars! The skin is really sensitive. I also tried push-ups the other day and boy was that a weird feeling.

okay...some fun stuff...what I have been doing this winter.

Great pics. Thx for sharing.

Have you ever been up North of the border?

If I had the room for a sled trailer I'd get a couple for sure. My wife loves them even more than I do. Awesome pics!

All you describe as far as the shoulder is par for the course. I have a 67 lb pitbull with a head like a fuzzy rock, imagine what that feels like when it bumps into the plate.

Yes. Not BC but it was Canada. We were trying to backpack from Coleman State Park in NH to Montmagny but my buddy got us really lost. I had been telling him "this doesn't feel right"...West when we should have been going north. Finally, we found some French speaking guy and made him point on the map. We were almost in Vermont! So we cut the ride short and headed for La Guadeloupe, Quebec. It was still an awesome ride and we did 580 miles of riding in two days. 260 miles Weds(11 hours)(slowed by many mini-blizzards of wet snow), 320 miles Thurs(12 hours). We even pissed off a large moose in NH.

You always have room...lol. What you need is an inline 2 place trailer for the bikes. Then just switch them in the winter for the sleds. OR...get a camp. I'm lucky. I can leave from my back yard and ride to Canada...if I want.

Good Grief, they are some beautiful pictures but it's hard to believe we are on the same planet. We are long term planning to go tour Canada on road bike, but not in winter. Maybe seeing those I could convince the wife we could go in winter. . . Nah she'd never go for it. Cold?!!

My shoulder area feels great, I can lie on my RHS for the first time, I can take weight now & am doing hand-weights to build up strength. Apparently it will take a few weeks to fill in the holes the screws left so I'm holding off racing or dirt-riding till April, but have a few rides planned then while we still have good weather down here. Poor bike, I last rode it Jan 2009. Done a few ks on the Tiger of late though.

Thanks! Cold...what is that??? All in the gear you have on. I love it in northern New Hampshire!

I'm going to having the plate removed. Yes, I know...I need to be careful and allow time for the wholes to fill in. I think having it removed will help with some of the pulling and the pinching I get from my kid hitting it.

Beautiful pics Steve. Thanks for posting
