Good news all around.

Last Man Standing is this weekend:

"200 riders, side-by-side, line the top of a plush, green valley. No lines, no trail, just pure virgin terrain lies ahead. Silent engines belie the madness about to begin.
Across the valley a mile away, a signal fire is lit, engines roar to life and 200 riders launch into a bomb run down into the valley. Straight ahead, a dense forest challenges the closest distance between two points theory. Simultaneously, 200 riders need to decide right, left or straight into the thick of it. The fire marks the exit of the valley at the end of a long hill climb, but it’s only the beginning."

We already know, this is going to be an awesome event!

The last 12 hours have been getting better and better. Got a nice phone call last night, found out I am allowed to walk again and I'm thinking it can only continue to get better.

Doctor Royer: These x-rays look great. You ready to walk again?
Me: Hell yeah! Do I need to wear that stupid boot?
Dr.: Yeah, for the next three weeks-...
Me: Curses!
Dr.: ...but you are allowed to take it off for activities.
We then went through the laundry list of activities and what I am and am not allowed to do:
Walking (in pool and out), swimming, driving, weights, road cycling and the like are fair game.
Jogging, rock climbing, mountain biking, strenuous activites & falling on my leg are all out.

Now all I want to do is walk around.
