Well...turns out the simple break of my wrist wasn't so simple after all. Yesterday I had surgery to install a plate and seven screws to hold my bones in place properly. That means 8 more weeks of various splints, braces, and therapy...which ends all hope of riding anytime soon.
So...CCR is out for this year. I'm just sick about that, as I've been to all of them except the first at Broken Bow. I'll concentrate on getting better and hopefuuly recover for a fall ride of some sort.
I've got two CCR registrations available if anyone's interested.
Good seeing you last week, Matt!
Woody, sorry I can't ride out to Utah with you! I'll give you a call soon.
Regards,

Could you post some x-rays?
Good luck on the recovery.

Not the best quality scans, but these show my new hardware...

Man, that really sucks Paul. I hope you heal up quickly.
But on the count of not coming to CCR: How 'bout just driving in? I'll have to do the same thing due to Lanette's back, but I'll be damned if I miss that.

Thanks, Andy...
I've been thinking about driving, but my medical bills have consumed my CCR funds.
I'll be back next year!

Nice plate :)
The plate should help you heal at a faster pace. It will provide a stable construct for movement to occur sooner.
Good luck and keep us up to date on your recovery.
