Have you ever obviously broken/fractured a bone and not had it looked at and then regretted it? I’m riding again tomorrow…
Yes, sort of… I did, and never had it fixed, but I don’t regret it.
I broke/cracked the bone at the end of wrist at Donington park in practice. Went out again after the bike was fixed but could only manage 5-6 laps before the pain got too much, so did that for the afternoon just to keep riding.
Next day I went to hospital and they confirmed it was broken, however when I asked about the potential for leaving it with just a strapping on he stated it would be fine long term and no consequences, so I left it, so I could race at Donington on a borrowed Ducati 996 in a fortnight. Despite being rubbish in the race, it was a cracking experience and I don’t regret it at al.
