Yes, the looking back helps, as long as you can recognize continual improvement...it helps on those down days.
Three years on (time flies) I am hanging my full weight on that side and doing big reaches, there was a time I thought I'd never get there!
Same with my ankle ligament injury. Would've been better if I would've broken it, but 8 weeks of physical therapy and not letting it atrophy and continuously working it since have kept the range of motion open and helped bring improvement where it felt as though it would never fully heal. But there is scar tissue and soreness develops flexing on terrain and by end of day. I'll never run any distance again, but at least I'm daily functional.
Sorry to not be more clear -- that was 15 years ago and I don't have an actual pic of it on file, so I found one that was similar. X-ray said no break, just mega ligament damage.
I did very similar pushing 20 years ago. Mountain biking a elevated section of trail and fell about 8' and got twisted in the frame. Put a abrupt end to my extreme mountain biking career.
Nice mat highway, and galvanized trailer. Surprised more people don't go with that. I'm looking into a aluminum chip box now, my two steel dumpster boxes rusted within a year and will only get worse from there.
Some days I get to much volcano mountain in my eyes, today it was too much salty water, and the darn bald eagle kept flying around, and talking and talking...
