My '08 from Portugal - "13"

Back injuries are a pita mate...wishing you well with your recovery

 

I don't think mine is reaaaaaallly serious... but better safe than sorry, right?
Thanks.

 

I can send over one of my girls if it helps:

 

Ouch - hope you get sorted soon

Good news... After a visit to an Osteopath and a Neurosurgeon, it appears my back is fine.
Bad news... my left foot still hurts like hell. Did new x-rays today, everything appeared ok.
Next step: Do a Magnetic Resonance.

In the mean time I get to ride these:

 

Hope you recovery soon and fully mate, I know your pain.... I've had surgery on my spine twice now after 20 years in the army, broken back and injuries from Afghan, and I was lade up for the best part of a year, to end up with life changing injuries. But good to hear your getting better.

 

Sad to hear these things, although I know you don't want sympathy. My true hope though is that you haven't been 'shafted' by THE SYSTEM!

 

Thanks mate

 

Guess who's back?

 

Yeah, but you're balancing on crutches as you took the photo!

 

Took her for a small spin just now...
Foot and back had minor pain... going back to work tomorrow... let's see how it goes.

 

Turns out my problem had nothing to do with my spine.
Culprits found: Peroneus Brevis tendon inflammation and also probable Anterior Talofibular ligament tear. Solution: Physio-therapy.
Luckily pain has been reduced last couple of weeks, been riding normally.

 

12.499kms (7766.5 miles) made with the S21s. Now time for S22s!

 

Good going. I won't even live long enough to accumulate nearly half of that mileage.

 

Science has progressed a lot lately...

 

I know. I'm a big follower of Botox. (Not only for the cheeks; it's great for smoothing out one's sac)

 

90.000kms!
