Sorry. Look after it and give it time to heal.

Buy some suffer fest videos and sit on the turbo!

Arrggh... thats what I thought.....but just think a minute.. all that sweating under the plaster, when mine came off the smell was dreadful and my arm was covered in a thick layer of dead leathery brown skin that came off in strips...

Broke mine, told it wasnt broken (definitely was visible in the xay, but nevermind), 6 weeks later got it checked again and put in cast, 3 months later had surgery as it wasnt healing, 5 months later got the cast off, 3 months later was only using a light support for the wrist after getting several different types of splint.

Is fine most of the time, slight reduction in movement but not much,
hurts a bit more in on cold winter road rides and for a week or so if I fall hard on it!

As others have said, make sure you give it the proper time to heal, it breaks again easily and you don't want another long period in a cast because you rushed the first lot! Mine really screwed up a year for me, couldnt sketch and told not to use the workshop with my hand in a cast, and was starting my final year of a product design degree = told to take a year out!

Teasel - I'll give you a shout once I know the prognosis. Failing that, I'll just turn up for cheesecake ๐Ÿ™‚
