How do you find yourself wheelchair bound for 6 months with a steel plate and 8 screws in one ankle and 2 screws in the other ankle?

I've been on many wrecks on the track, when I was taking the track as a youngster. Never broke a bone. First time wrecking on a public road and I get out out of commission for basically a year.

I’m sorry to hear that. I have had to learn to walk again twice from major leg injuries. Reach out if you need any help/advice/etc šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøšŸ«‚šŸ‘Œ

Hey, Cali Mike, this was 8 years ago. I ran a half marathon 10 months later and a full marathon (not my best time) 11 months after the wreck.

And was back on my new bike within a year.

So 98% recovered.

As for the remaining 2% I've been treated by the best surgeons and physical therapist. It's not likely I'll ever be 100% on that front.

But, the pain and suffering paid off two mortgages and bought me a strip mall which was later sold for some orange thing you all are always talking about. Lol.

Love it dude šŸ«‚ just reaching out. I totally get the struggle and the success ;)
