Busted my new bike. Crashed, and cracked the alternator cover. Pretty sure it happened on the 18" log. Parts on the way, then all will be good.

I had no clue how different this dirt thing would be. I'm a fairly competent asphalt rider, but this slow speed stuff is waaaaaayyyy different.

Getting more proficient every ride, practicing techniques in the yard. Good fun!

In the emergency room waiting for x-rays. It's not quite as easy as it looks. ;D

They pop it back in ok?
Nope. Different than a dislocation.

Google AC joint damage. Damned incovenient...I must say. It involves the ligaments that connect the clavicle to the scapula. :P

I have an appointment with an orthopaedist on Friday.

Pretty sure I'm looking at 6-8 weeks regardless of the course of treatment...depending on the severity. Sucks.

The side that does everything.
