    Hey hey Everybody!!

    Im out of hospital and back on my feet (with a horrible back brace)

    I suffered a wedge compression fracture of 2 spinal vertabre. Im in a back brace for 8-12 weeks. cant drive, cant do anything mechanical, cant sh*g, cant pick anything up, cant shower, cant do anything. BUT im alive! and still have the use of my legs.

    My backpack saved my life. It had a rolled up fleece inside. ;D

    Thanks to all for your messages!

    Good to have you back!! I did the same to my back but it was falling down the stairs backwards! Glad you didn't do more damage and thank goodness for fleeces, not just to keep you warm!!
    It's all about the ride!

    Good to hear you are getting there, even if it's going to take a while. 8-) Keep smiling

    We're a helpful bunch, maybe someone will lend you a hand :

    Glad you're ok, sounds like a long road to recovery but at least you're still here to ride it. Get well soon!

    I don't know you or what happened but saying your backpack saved your life and that you can't sh&g now for 8-12 weeks has forced me to go and buy a back brace, so thank you - I owe you a pint, that's something you can do!

    Wish you well on your recovery!

    Nice one Andy. I feel better now. I ride to work everyday with a rolled up towel in my rucksack. Lets hope it has the same effect if it happens to me.
    Get well soon fella
