[QUOTE="ws6transam, post: 987077, member: 65064"] Two knees, one left thumb. I did the left thumb on the Finke Desert racing track in 1989: Tore out the ligament, and seven months later I had to have surgery because of a bone spur that resulted from NOT seeing the doctor about the torn ligament! Then in 1994 I ripped out an anterior cruciate ligament in my right knee while popping wheelies in the back yard on a newly restored '78 DT175. That one effectively ended my dirt biking. While in there for surgery the doctor took lots of pictures of the fissures and craters that had appeared in my meniscus and promptly told me that I've got grade III osteoarthritis in my knees and that I'd better stick to gliding sports and lay off the joint pounding sports. I've tried, honestly I have. Deer hunting, cars, electric guitars. However, like smoking, a good MX is hard to kick out of your system and all it took was one look at a bike by my youngest son this fall to set the addiction yearning anew... The knees dont hurt THAT badly... yeah I could do it with a little help from Aleve! Hmm... Will I remember how?? [/QUOTE]
