Nice work. What exactly did you break? Are you gonna be able to ride like that?

On an unrelated note, it looks like I may be heading your way for a couple of weeks in July.

So, basically, you stepped on somebody's foot, and it broke yours.

Yeah. See, AF guys are scary.

Ebbs, don't feel bad. I did the same thing many times playing ball in high school and college. That's how I ended up with bone spurs on both ankles. Make sure you behave as much as possible in the short time you have before you leave and take the best care of it that you can manage while on the trip.

Oh, and how are you going to explain the lack of a cast when you go back for your follow up?

Man that sucks! Hope it heals up quick!

On a better note, I mailed off the Ram Bar mount today. You should have it Friday.
