Motoged crashed in a silt bed north of San Juanico ...his foot decided to look backwards....rode and walked on it for 10 days before x-ray......spiral
fracture of fibula....
Oh, Jesus....are you still trying to get sympathy for falling down in the silt? Guess I'd better finish "the rest of the story".......dtmotoged - 3-29-2011 at 08:59 PM
David,
Thanks for your comment tonight in ADVrider....
And I am proud to be your riding partner....not everyone would be as brave as you to ride with someone who wears a skirt riding in Baja AND who seeks
sympathy on such a public level.....
Actually, I am just wanting Baja Nomads to get the scoop before ADVrider gets this pic...it will be a few days before it gets into the ride
report....
Hope all is well with youdtbushpilot - 3-29-2011 at 09:18 PM
Thanks Ged, I hope you realize that after 2 years of lurking on the advrider site I chose to make my first post about your ride report. You are quite
a writer, photographer and riding partner. I had a great time on our adventure and I'm looking forward to more rides in the future.
I have procrastinated in finishing my ride report but I guess it's time that I closed the chapter on our adventure. I'm going to open a bottle of wine
and try to get some inspiration....
You were a great sport throughout our adventure and I appreciate all the fun I was able to have at your expense. I have a great deal of respect for
the way that you succumbed to the intense peer pressure that I heaped upon you that caused you to walk and ride for 4 days on a broken leg. YOU DA MAN
GED.......You are my new hero.....
I know we will do this again some day.....hopefully not the broken leg part but the other stuff for sure. You have earned my respect and admiration
and you can ride with me any time.....thanks for including me in your Excelent Baja Adventure, I'm still baking in the "ubication" of our
adventure.....dtmotoged - 3-29-2011 at 10:15 PM
Yo tambien, amigo
What else was I going to do....? Sit at Rice and Beans and listen to you sulk?
I am glad you stepped out of the ranks of the BN's and became a friend.
I always wanted to meet the lucky guy who had that avatar
Dos vaqueros duros ...

TW,
We are here to entertain....
I hope to start weight-bearing on the leg within 2 weeks....I will see what the doc and xrays say....I am taking care of it and focusing on the
ligaments and stretching...
Glad you have enjoyed the stories....just remember that David's judgement is NOT to be trusted and he distorts the truth to craft a tale...
But I would ride with him again in a minute...willyAirstream - 3-30-2011 at 09:59 AM

DB,
Oh, I can buff that out...
The staples came out a week ago ....the scar is healing faster and better than I anticipated.
I have been using an enzyme called Serrapeptase that may have been helping with the healing....
But things are getting better Cypress - 3-30-2011 at 12:17 PM
Ouch! That's one reason I stay off those "wing-dings". Wishing you a speedy recovery.
