    bad news guys

    guys bad news i cant ride for a while. i was at work and i was lifting some heavy stuff and pulled my rib muscles and messed up my back. so now i have to wait and see what is going on. the doctors said i should not go to work or ride for a while. lol yea rite. im going to work. i need the money. i cant get workers comp because it is a injury i have had before i started there. it just brought it back. so guys im done riding for now. but i will be back at it soon i hope. this wont keep me down. thats why they make pain killers.

    Who's telling you that you can't get WC? Even if it's like an injury you had before, you can still file since, like you said, you were lifting something heavy AT work. If the company is telling you that, they're trying to keep you from filing, which then goes against their safety record, let alone their insurance. If you plan to be out a while, I'd look into it. At least use the rib muscles as the excuse because I'm thinking the back was the issue before.

    Just be careful using pain medicine to dull the pain so you can ride. You can really make your injuries worse by doing that. I don't know if you were joking or not but I just wanted to comment.
    Good Luck.

    i think i worded it wrong i didnt hurt the ribs their selfs. it is the muscles on the ribs. i pulled them pretty bad i guess lol. the only reason im not in pain it because the drugs they gave me while i was there. what ever they are they are awesome. but they are starting to wear off.
