Well, I TORE it, not TOUR it!
Headed to Sturgis next Wednesday. I tore my MCL 2 weeks ago. They put me in a brace from pelvis to ankle for 4 weeks, locked straight. They called it a "stretch" and it went under my kneecap. Can walk around pretty good on it with the brace, but been using the crutch to really keep off it. Leaving for Sturgis next week...that will be almost 4 wks since I did it. I've riden 3 times so far with the brace on and can ride without any discomfort. I stretch out on the pegs anyways so my leg is not bent while riding.
Anyways, murphy's law right!
Spending 2 nights in Keystone then off on a 7 day road trip to Buffalo, WY, Jackson Hole, WY (spending 2 nights there) past the Tetons through Yellowstone up to Red Lodge, Mt. From there we'll head over to Cooke City and down Cheif Joseph Highway to Cody, WY. Spending another day off in Cody and then finally from Cody, back to Keystone to fly out the next day. It's about 1500 miles or so for the whole trip. Can't wait to go. Bike is ready and just hoping that I am in too.
