Yep, I have an insanely high tolerance to pain but this fracture is pushing it over my tolerance. Oh, and I wasn't wearing a helmet, other than a couple of road rash marks on my my left arm, there wasn't anything else banged up. That exact spot has claimed the lives of two other riders. One was decapitated by the guide wire, about a week before my turn at it and the other got sliced up by the fence about a month before my ordeal.oh wow sean, i don't think i could have taken it myself, i have a high tolerance for pain but wow, you must have a unreal tolerance, lucky it wasn't your neck
