I had a slow speed off on the motorbike a few weeks ago in a remote region. I activated my locator beacon and then sat it out waiting for help and hoping that the signal had been received. Quite a few hours later I was airlifted to Hospital. I've broken my tibia, fibula and ankle, and now have an IM nail through the centre of my tibia from knee to ankle with some screws holding it in place.

I've now been on crutches for 7 weeks and it doesn't look like I'll be off them for a while yet. Combined with DVT and some stitch wounds that won't heal, it a real ol' pain in the ass.

Anyone had this before? Any input into recovery times? I'm keen to get back on the motorbike, but also very keen to windsurf again...
