did a wrist a number of years back. Could not get an orthopod so rode one week
end with it wrapped in an Ace Bandage. Then had it set and rode another ride
with a "Hoffman Device" (external pins and steel brace) on the wrist. You only
need one hand to wave with.

screws & returning to riding
there was some discussion recently about not
returning to riding too soon after a bone break.
anyone have experience to share about whether/how
this applies to having the bone screwed together after a break? (as in,
theoretically, the screwing should alleviate any potential harm from
starting back too soon, yes?)
thanks,

(yup, you guessed it: I do have a bone
[wrist] about to be screwed...and cuyama's coming
up....)
