my accident

sooo.. everything was going well until thurs night when my friend jenn and i decided to go on a bike ride. we were at a 4 way stop in a little town called Niwot when an SUV decided to make a right hand turn around us. He made the right turn too sharp and the side of his car caught the back wheel of my bike and I went down. I caught my fall on my arm and the guy drove off. Luckily, some witnesses got the license plate # of the guy and the police tracked him down and wrote him a couple of tickets. I went to the emergency room that night and got some X rays on my arm (because it hurt a lot) that determined I had a radial head fracture (non-displaced). So as a result I have not been running since and have been in a vicatin daze the past few days. Im finally feeling better today without the help of pain killers and have an appointment with the orthopedic doctor which will hopefully tell me more about how long this will take to heal and whether i will need a cast instead of the splint im wearing now. ... well I hope all is well and watch out for cars..
