Worst injuries from riding your bike?:

as far as I go in the past 2-3 years I only have substained a broken growth plate in my ankle and bruised my kidney(knock on wood).

and to be honest I'd rather break an ankle again before bruising my kidney that really sucks terribly.I pee'd kool-aid colored urine for a week and my side felt as if someone was standing on it non stop for like 4 days.

neat thing was they used the dye in my I.V so I was able to see it run through my blood stream on the scan they gave me.

but yea anyone else ?

animal hamilton pedals ftw....have to toughen up those shins man...i think the worse thing is when you break a chain while pedaling really hard at a ramp and then you get the great feeling of falling into the face of the ramp lol
