Yep broke mine, at school.

Got an xray, doctor told me it wasn't broken. It was still 'hurting' a week later. Had another xray then another docotor told me it was broken but it was too late to do anything because it was already 'set' wonkey.

Yes I broke mine when a child and I can agree it hurts.

Mine was not as spectacular as yours however, I merely slipped down a flight of stairs on a fire escape due to a new pair of Nike air jordans and a dose of rain.

Sat on the floor for a good 20mins before my mates Dad arrived home and found me on the deck in agony.

MINI ME

I broke mine, amongst other things. It did not heal on its own so I had it plated. It was my most minor injury so never noticed pain. Most common bike injury me thinks?

Jimmyc

Yeah broken mine before when i was a kid. A mate, in a karate kid stylee throw, threw me to the ground whilst we were playing footy.
Kinda hurt at first then it went away, finished the match and went in for last 2 lessons of the day, half hour in i decided i was in fact in a lot of pain. Which then led to a trip to A&E.

Yep, Broke my left one 3 times!

1st time was in bed, aged about 3 or 4, can't remember at the mo.. Fell out and landed wierd. Bed was only about a foot of the ground!

2nd time I was running through a field, In Chivenor in north Devon. I managed to get my left leg caught under a thin log while running, which caused me to tumble and land again, on the same shoulder. Snapped it clean and heard it go too!

3rd time, Went downhill mountain biking, Went to go through some trees, Was doing some high speeds, and miss judged the way I had to go, Hit the tree, shoulder made contact and again snapped it....

The 2nd time was whem i would have been about 10 ish. Was the dreaded parents evening. Was standing up on a small ish cupboard looking out the window when i droped my skittles onto the wooden floor. Jumped down to get the and hit the deck.

i have and i was actually cringing reading everyones stories. i can still feel the pain as it was horrendous! i hit a fuck off big pot hole while on my mountain bike and flew over the handle bars. i was in the middle of nowhere and literally couldnt get up for the pain cos how i was lying i was stuck

eventually managed somehow while thinking my shoulder was shattered

my mate did his in tho while skiing and was swimming within 5 days. wtf!

everyone thought i was a pussy as i'd said how fucking sore it was but it really was i tell you!

Nick, I have no idea, but feel sorry for you nontheless
Hope you mend yourself soon. Might be a good opportunity for some TLC from the other half

WD Pro

I only broke it once but it was in three pieces

Over the handle bars in the lakes. One bent front wheel and a sore knee - hurt more than the CB !

I only knew it was broke when I rubbed my shoulder and felt it sticking out. Shoved my hand in my pocket, bike on the other shoulder and walked all the way down.

Yes you can feel it move around when you move

You have a nice warm time of the year to be bandaged under the armpits

rostill2007

broke both mine left when i was 7 but i banged my head pretty hard aswell so cant really remember it and my right last year undoing a fookin bolt painfull is one way of putting it left is still wonky now 10 years later

xr2i-carl

What damage to the bike?

snedboy

Yeah broke mines aswell. Was about 10 playing football and got hacked big style and ended up landing against a kirb coller bone first heard an almighy crunch then me screeming like a bitch before walking home in agony

Got in and told my mum who said i'll be fine and i said look i cant move it and my right arm was sore to move aswell. She made me a sling (sp) out of a scarf and told me to make do and eventually after a week she took me to hospital who confirmed yes its broken,but so is the other one

Well lets just say i still haveant let my mum live it down

reading that its almost enough to put me off bikes for life

tabetha

I love bikes, would dearly love a 350LC + 500LC as these are the best bikes the world has ever seen, but just so many idiots on the road now.
I even like x7's, CX500, just loads of bikes but mainly older ones 70's/80's, as newer one just so boring, and too fast for me , I would cry like a little girl!!

foreigneRS

some pictures from the day

the bikes all mint and ready to go in the morning



my knee slider after only my 2nd ever track session. i felt like a fraud putting on knee sliders before the day as i thought i wouldn't get anywhere near needing them.





had it cranked right over and the knee down through Sears, Bomb Hole and Coram



then it all went wrong as i wound on the power whilst still on the edge of the tyre coming out of the esses and accelerating in 2nd





the medical staff at the circuit were brilliant

in hospital after the x-ray



the damaged bike. really sorry stu









my helmet (steady girls) after sliding about 20m along the track





when i was done in hospital we headed back to the circuit and stu had another couple of sessions on my bike. also got his knee down on his first track day after only passing his test last september

frog

At least the bike isn't too damaged It's only cosmetic.

Hope you're mended soon nick

i have done mine before, pissed up, jumped over some railings, got my foot stuck and nose dived into the pavement, hurt like hell, went into the next pub for a couple more beers and the pain didnt go away, went and had a look in the mirror in the toilets and it was obvious what i had done

Garage19

Thes esses at the beginning of the start finish straight or the end of the back straight?

I high sided my old race bike coming out of the ones at the end of the back straight before the bomb hole.

Ambulance driver gave me a 9.8 for aerobatic ability. Bruised and pulled just about about every muscle in my body but luckily no broken bones.

I found the more i drank in the club house that night the less it all hurt. Ended up racing sega manx TT with a guy who had broken his ankle that day.

Couldn't pick my own head up off the pillow in the morning though!

foreigneRS

the esses at the end of the back straight - was accelerating (too hard) out of the 2nd gear right hander towards the 3rd gear bomb hole

thanks for all the well wishing

think i'm addicted to bike track days now though - i'll see if i feel the same when i get back on a bike

Garage19

Snap! (literally for you) Same place as me then.

Mine was oil on the back wheel. Marshalls were flagging me but i'd just taken third and was too in the zone to notice!
