    In response to item 2.12 in the FAQ I'd like to share the following. I finally convinced a couple of
    my friends to get their old mtn bikes out & come for a ride. At first it, they were both off &
    walking at anything remotely technical, but after a while the guy was starting to warm up and had a
    go at a tricky little climb. He came off and the result as follows...

    The gash is about 2 inches long and continues another 2 inches under the skin . He rode out OK
    (apparently there's no many nerves in that area of the [censored]), but is not enjoying having to have the
    wound repacked every couple of days to ensure it heals from the bottom to avoid infection.

    It should leave a really cool scar. Get his 'ass' out for another ride.

    Ah, that's just an itty bitty flesh wound.

    I need to stop following these links. At least as long as I'm a bit queasy from this cold.

    Dare I ask why it looks like that? I mean, I've had stuff look yellow and [censored] a few days after
    an injury, but that looks pretty fresh ...

    Aren't those fat cells? (the yellow stuff)

    FWIW: This gory stuff doesn't affect me. A friend of mine who was a plastic surgeon showed me a
    series of photos taken during a long, complicated reconstructive surgery. They basically took the
    patient's entire head apart (skin off the bone, jaw removed), added a ton of prosthetic parts, and
    put it all back together again. It was absolutely bizarre, and completely fascinating.
