Ouch, sounds like pretty bad luck to land the way she did. We have a
token tourist tram here which runs in a loop within the central city.
Those tracks cause quite a few cycle accidents (they have warning
signs up in a couple of places).
I was lucky to avoid surgery when I broke my

Sorry to hear that Frank. Not much padding in that area.
Liz's broken wrist went from 4 week to now 9 weeks, so i think it
depends on how we heal for a time line. Liz and i don't bounce like we
used to, so maybe the eldest will heal fast.
Our orthos work weekends now, so that is helping to speed

Luckily she's young and in pretty good shape, so her prognosis is
good. It could have been worse to be sure, and she's taking it like a
trooper, but she's not too comfortable right now.
Wish her well please Frank.

I feel responsible, being a PDML member. Obviously the PDML Bike
Curse is communicable (or perhaps genetic)...
I blame the parents.
Wish her well from one of the accursed. I'm glad I only broke my
wrist, not my leg. At least I could remain active and resume jogging
and cycling fairly

It's normal to keep the plate in unless it causes problems afterwards.
They told me mine would have to remain in, but in the event it gave
quite a lot of trouble because one of the screws worked itself halfway
out and was bulging into my flesh.
Incidentally, they also told me mine was the worst

I hate trolley (tram) tracks--I was thrown by them once, and ever since have
taken great care to cross them at a very acute angle.

Interesting about the different approaches. His wrist and lower arm

Hi Walt
Just thought I'd mention that in my case the surgeon decided that the
plate would remain in place. It's now been about 3 years. The only
sign is on the top of the wrist where one of the screw heads makes a
very small bump in the skin.
Your son definitely needs to keep on top of the
