So now I know.
Jessica | June 25, 2008 1:12 pmSure, I always knew in theory that it was a bad idea to take a spill off your bike going down a hill at 25mph, but now I know in practice as well. I’m a bit scraped up, but doing fine. I do have a cast on my right arm (preventative mostly. My wrist hurts, but there was nothing on the x-ray) which will make typing tricky for the next week or so.
Thanks for the emails asking where I was and why I haven’t been posting. I’m moving slowly, but very happily, and loving my helmet right now (4 cracks on the helmet and nothing on my head except a scrap on my chin) I got a ride today back to my car and I’m about to head out now to rejoin the group. Tomorrow is actually the last day of the trip. I’m going to spend it leap frogging them in my car as they ride and taking some action photography in the beautiful Colorado Rockies.

Jess,
Good to hear from you. Take care of that arm but don’t let that stop you from posting what will surely be awesome pics.
Take care,
J.

Glad you’re okay! Be careful out there.
I’m glad you’re OK!! That must have sucked. Yay, helmets! Take care of yourself!
Young healthy people need health insurance too.
That last comment was supposed to have “” and “” around them… Much funnier and less bitchy that way. :-)
Arg!!
My health insurance comment (and second comment clarifying) was supposed to have <epidemiologist rant> and </rant> around it… (Ben thinks this will work…)
It would be nice to be able to delete/edit my comments… but I guess that doesn’t work since I’m not logged in…
I hope your wrist is healing up. Post some pictures when you get a chance!
Thanks everyone!
I’m going to the hospital tomorrow for more x-rays and hopefully everything will be fine and I can get this thing off my arm!
Molly, I’ll look into setting it so that you can change your comments. I’m sure there’s a plug-in for that. (btw, I did set up a new plug-in so that you can subscribe to comments and get new ones for a specific post by email). But that wouldn’t be nearly as amusing as watching you write three comments in the attempt to make a joke. :)
And I do have health insurance. But it’s health insurance with a high deductible so I’ll still be paying for it all. It’s still got to go through Blue Cross though so about all it’s going to accomplish is that I’ll be able to put off paying for a couple months until I get the bill from them.
Care to comment?
