After seeing Xphyrals thread and lack of knee cap pictures, i reckon a thread with some real knarly bike related injuries would be a good idea. Lets be honest, we cant help but look no matter how sick it will make us feel.

Ill kick off with this one, a chap from MCNninjas lubing, and then cleaning his chain with a rag, the inevitable happens.........and heres the result.....oh, and in case you couldnt tell, its his thumb

I think we all need a reminder from time to time. If anyone thinks it should be marked not work safe then ill mark it as so. But i think the title gives away whats inside.

Hey snap on the broken thumb (ba-boom tish! ...sorry)
Is that a K-wire you've got there? How weird did it feel having them pulled out! She just used some bullnose pliers and pulled!

I'm off to find my pics, got a one with a bone poking out my wrist and one with 5 k wires in my foot. Tried to video them pulling the k wires out but they wouldn't let me.

I got nothing. Sorry guys, but looks like my leathers wrap me up pretty well, and I've had a few offs.

I did snap my collarbone before christmas - not sure if it was the highside off the CRM250 or the rugby tackle practice in the same evening...
either way, no pics. :smt012

Remember - Chicks dig scars...
..but not always the stories relating to them.
