  2. shoelace in the cranks at 14MPH on a nimbus 36". ow. Just made it out
    within the time window to not severely twist my leg. It still hurt to
    walk and I had to limp the rest of the way to work. It sucked.

    I've done that too πŸ˜„ except mine didn't pop back into place...πŸ™

    I've also ripped a ligament in my knee that stopped me riding for a
    month.(I did it the day I got my new uni)

    Just when you get something new... You injure yourself before you can
    use it. It sucks when that happens.

    I have yet to injure myself enough that I can't ride... I pray that
    never happens.

    I landed on my leg at about 30km/hr on the Laos Unitour.

    Back riding about 6months after the accident, although didn't get back
    to my pre-injury race speed until recently.

    Round 1 was a Webber C ankle fracture that happened in Nepal in 2002,
    Unicycling in the Himalayas. I can't find it but it's one of my early
    posts on this forum.

  20. I crashed my uni with a 27" road wheel going about 30km/h just about a
    year ago. I was waring a large backpack so I could not roll out of it.

    every ligament that holds the shoulder to the collarbone were ripped in
    half and the collar bone lodged itself into the muscle that is usually
    over the shoulder blade'.'
    (http://www.unicyclist.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59606)

    My shoulder still gets stiff if I sleep on it and my leg is still sort
    of numb where they took out muscle casing to repair the ligaments in my
    shoulder.

    Moral of the story: don't wear large backpacks when unicycling faster
    than you can run.
