So it looks like I'll live!!
Sep 30th, 2009, 3:55pm
 
Well after what seemed like forever, I finally got the MRI results today.  It's just a slight tear of the MCL.  Not only will I not need any kind of surgery, but should only need a week or two off the bike.  I figure this week's almost over anyway, so that only leaves one more right?  Smiley
 
Thanks to everyone for the kind words and help with getting all my stuff back to Dallas.  I know Mark's first intro to me went something like "Wow, Steve's kinda heavy for a skinny guy."  Smiley  Haha, thanks Mark for all the help.

Steve, that's great news. We were all very worried & expecting the worst. Rest up, take it easy for a while & we'll see you down the road soon. All things considered, it could have been a lot worse.

Not sure about that I put an extra water bladder on my bike and it probably comes close to your weight   Smiley
 
Good to hear you're doing well I kinda just dumped you in a cot and didn't see you afterwards. Next year no free rides you'll have to practive your one legged drills.  Smiley

Great, next year he'll be the one legged man in an ass kicking contest.
 
Steve, glad to hear that it was a minor tear, can't wait 'till you're back at 100%.  Sebring in February?
