Broken Humerus (but not so funny)

By MikeG on 5/25/2007
Broken Humerus (but not so funny)

This was taken after the crash of my relative, who was riding with me on May 21st. It was taken just before they took him away in an ambulance.
There was a dip in the trail that caught him by surprise along 12-mile creek in St. Catharines

It's a funny story! I asked if there was anything I could do for him, and he told me to take a picture. So unfortunately I can't take that much credit for it.

Either riding or Thinking of Riding... The madness of MTB, I love it!

Wow that looks painful! Hope the recovery is not too bad. I broke some ribs earlier this week but I think you got me beat big time!!

you gotta love mtbrs for their sick sense of posterity! my worst injury ever was the result of a big rock and a dose of kodak courage. i broke my heal and my first question was: did you get a picture of that? he did.
