....and I wasn't even riding it !!!!!

I was reaching over the bike, grabbing both ends of the swingarm and compressing the seat with my chest to check the chain free play.

POP !!!!!! "ouch...this sucks....what was that?" "why am I seeing stars?" "where's my mommy?"

So now what do I do??? still hurts on day 3.

I wanna ride !!!

Ouch sorry to hear.

Get an X-ray? There's not much they'll do. If it is broken 6-8 weeks. Fracture maybe 4. Oh and stay away from the brit thread, cause laughing hurts too.

Yeah, I'm super bummed....Advil helps but laughs, sneezes, hiccups, etc...SUCK!!!

No x-rays...like you said, nuthin they can do really.

My bikes nick name is "The Widow-maker" my buddies kids bike is now "The Rib-breaker". They shipped it Kauai for a race next weekend....I hope it DOESN'T hold up to it's new name....

Poor brit.....

I just wanna ride !!!!
