    Dang... I've seen too many of those pics with my name at the top...

    Pete, That's the main support structure for your body's weight that you snapped!
    Please take care of that foot! Let it heal properly; mine didn't...
    Let you Best-Half ride you around a bit; it'll make her appreciate you all the more!

    Everyone is so nice. But not me. I'm gonna tell it like it is....

    You do not need that foot. It is defective. Cut it off. Then get a handbrake and go ryding.

    That looks pretty nasty. Heal quick. Do you have any weight bearing restrictions on that foot? As mentioned, a hand brake may not be a bad idea.

    Install a ISCI handbrake and keep riding no need to use that right foot - great investment if it keeps you riding all summer !

    Default Sad news..!!

    do have it set right and give it time to heal properly. More than healing fast heal well. When given the ok to ride (as a passenger) let the wife give you a ryde or take the red beast apart so no one can ryde it...all the best to both and try to be a good patient...

    When I broke my foot it took a year and a half to get well. So, I understand what you are going through. I've had six broken bones, been shot twice, and one concussion. The foot hurt worse than any, even a broken back. So, I really feel for you. Get the hand brake...you will be glad you did.

    Feet aren't any fun at all when they don't work right...
    You'll need to follow the Doctor's instruction to the letter! Letting it heal properly once; will only save you from future problems with it!

    Naw....see my post above about when I broke my foot. I think he would be better off just cutting it off and nailing on a 2x4.
