    Hope the Tornado makes a quick recovery and is back riding later this year. I have a coworker who did almost the exact same thing, needed rods and pins etc., as always lots of PT, hope he is doing ok!

    Broken ankles suck! Sympathy from pretty women is good though, get out as much as possible. Injury is a great icebreaker. Heal up quick!
