 Bummer and ouch!

 I cracked a rib walking the wrong way into the automatic door at the Hollister Nob Hill. Which just shows the path of greater safety is using a drive through and buying at Starbucks or McDonald’s. It hurt for way to long.

 So what was the rating of the route you were down riding? 5.7?

Yeah, an accident. Some people will do ANYTHING to get out of the October Pinnacles trip. You better be there, healed and ready to climb.

I would have gone headfirst, but I just got a new helmet because my other two had cracks.  No way will I be climbing in October; it takes two weeks just to get to the point where it is not too painful to get out of bed.  Couple of years ago when I did this to the other side of my ribcage I re-injured after 5 weeks when I gently picked up a ladder to clean the gutters.  That lead to another two months of down time.  Right now, coughing sucks, lifting my arm over my head is not an enjoyable event, just driving down the road is uncomfortable. 

The route was definitely 5.7 until the end

Clink, I think you are the only person I know that could crack a rib walking through a door.  That is an accomplishment. 

Cannot start the lawnmower and I need to clean the gutters.  Ugh

That sucks.  From what I can gather you were gearing up.  I know that has to be a bummer but...we are camping and climbing in Oct.  As they say on The Price is Right "Mr. Mud Come on Down"

If I come down, I will not be able to climb.  I am just now getting to where I can breathe comfortably although I cannot take a deep breath.  What my doctor said should make Brad happy, told me I should think about doing other things, lol.

Lemme guess: you laughed so hard at this outrageous advice that... that's how you learned that it hurts to laugh with a broken rib?

If you are not crashing you are not riding hard enough.

Heal up buddy!!

Plus by the time the rain stops up
There in June you will be all healed up.
I'm not worthy.

 What is the plan for October now? I was so looking forward to a tickle contest with Mud, it looks like that ain't happening now.

 Is Brad offerring massages again in his van? Is Noal going to bellydance by the fire? Aaron and Dina doing a drum circle? Bob bringing his big south county sausage? Raccoon pit barbecue?

 Other than a semi-'ntelligent conversation with the usual, what's the plan, climbing?

We have two camp sites.  No group site.  That means not a mega big gathering like the last M.O.M.

Last I heard from Brad he said a lot of people would like to camp.  I will leave the management of an attendance list to him. I plan onl sleeping in my vehicle so that frees up one tent.

And... be warned if you bring children I will tell them there is no Santa Claus, no Easter Bunny, and no Tooth Fairy.

 My grandchildren may bite, just warning everyone.  :)

 There is a sign at the local market that says “Unattended children will be given an espresso and a free puppy “

I am half joking.  Santa Claus might be enough.

Should get there on Friday.  Plan on staying until Sunday. We will go climbing.
