Marty;
Thank-you, but no, I didn't wreck. I have severe arthritis in both knees. My left knee was causing problems and I had to go back to using crutches. Which terminated my riding... sort of.. I can go, but have to come back to the same spot where I leave the crutches.
Anyway, I was asending a staircase and fell, landing on my left knee on the 90 degree corner of the step. I thought I just aggravated the arthritis, but it turns out, I broke my femur vertically from the knee - up the leg 6-8" into two pieces. I am in a leg brace and 'still on crutches'. Because I used my crutches and put no weight on the leg / knee - I caused no additional damage, thus the Femur is healing on its own - without surgery.
Thank--you for the kind words and concern.
PS; As I mentioned or believe I mentioned earlier, send me a note offline and I will send you the name and number for someone who can get you the Corbin Seat at a discount. My work email address is
