ChileRelleno 0 #1 February 2, 2003 As many of you well know I "The Great Chile Relleno" shattered the bejeezus out of my right tib/fib back in August. Well yesterday after five (5) months of recovery I donned my own gear and took a ride to altitude...!!!!!!!!!!! I was a little nervous about landing my Hornet loaded at 1.26, would I be able to run out a landing if needed? All the physical therapy and hardwork payed off yesterday!!! Dang is it good to be back in the saddle!!!"I'm not bound to ground, I soar amongst the clouds once again!"

jmpnkramer 0 #11 February 2, 2003 Five months is nothing Big Guy. Just remember not to take it too fast too soon. Make sure you are back to health. I have seen others come back too soon only to get hurt worse and unable to return. I personally was out for two years before I made my jump back. I then waited another six months to truly come back to the sport. The gym and physical therapy is a wonderful thing. BLUE SKIES & SOFT LANDINGS!!! Take it easy.The REAL KRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMER!

jceman 1 #18 February 3, 2003 Good deal. Welcome back, bro. Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money. Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
