ok
I've never told ya cumuator
but quad bikes are dangerous

don't you know that?

my brother has his girls riding them on their property (I shudder every time I see the pics)
bloody dangerous bikes

trade the thing in a 2 wheeler mate
maybe ? get yourself a good ag bike

ps - sympathy to you regardless of how you did it (and mumsie Robbie trusts that you were wearing a helmet ?)
I hope that it isn't too painful over the week-end mate

I have broken a wrist before (NOT on motorbikes - jolly basketball!!) so I can feel your pain!!

WavyTwenty

OUCH!

Hope it doesn't take too long to get back to normal.

A lady that I work with, lost her Grand Daughter recently in a quad bike accident. She was riding near Lancelin as a passenger with her boyfriend and had an accident. She was killed and now he faces homicide charges.

Thanks for all the replies,the funny thing is it did'nt really hurt for about 15/20 minutes after i did it but the pain was very intense until they put an ice pack on it and gave me a tramal ,about 20 minutes after that i did'nt give a shite LOL.
Because it's a 650cc it has got some awesome power so it's a huge adrenaline rush when your getting right into it.
I've been riding bikes of all types since i was a wee lad as i grew up on dairy farm and this is the first time i've done any real damage to myself,so i've been pretty lucky.
Panamax is enough to keep the pain under control now as they put a back slab cast on it to give some solid support for a sling.
Monday i'll get a full cast for 4 weeks the doctor said so it can't be too bad a break.

"the things we men do to get some attention." LOL
 I'm just an adrenaline junky and this bike has the capability to give it to you in huge quantities.

Triggersmob,sorry to hear of your work friends very sad and unfortunate loss.

Sorry to hear about the accident and injury Accumulator. Hope you're on the mend soon.

I assume the bike suffered as well?

hahaha,AC noodling will be very difficult indeed.

thanks Pedro, no damage at all to the bike,thankfully as it would have hurt a lot more if i'd broken the bike as well as me.

Ouch.

I rolled a quad bike on myself once in the thistles and all they cared about in emergency was rousing on me for not wearing a helmet. I had stupidly taken the bike into the bull paddock as I was scared of the bull, I should have walked, Dave was never going to hurt me, but he was a big bull. I was pulling thistles out of my head for days after. Luckily I never broke anything.

Norti PP you SHOULD ALWAYS wear a helmet
By the sounds of your story Dave the bull (not Bruce - ha ha) was probably just as scared of the thistle laden human!

Good to hear that the strapping is doing the job painwise accummulator

Im not convinced that quads are safe
But it sounds like u know what u are doing with it
They are fun but once they flip _ well, you're cactus (IMO)

Get better soon
Though , milk it for all u can
No washing up, no sweeping, no pegging clothes on the line

And so on :-)
