The hematoma swelling has just completely gone away in the past two weeks. I didn't think it was ever going back to normal.

Great to hear.
Things are going well now finally. A couple of weeks after the hematoma, I had a front wheel puncture on a corner, lost control and ended up on the ground with two sprained clavicles. It's not easy to do but I did it. I'd say I'm 98% healthy now

Ever think about a more “rural” route for your cycling? The front 75% of your post reinforces my desire for a “do not like” option. But being 98% healthy deserves a like.Things are going well now finally.

Hope the leg gets better, @Millard.
On the topic of cycling I saw this 1912 stationary bicycle at an antique store today and thought it was pretty cool.

That’s a cool bike! Did you see what they were asking for it? Maybe we could all chip in to keep Millard safe and healthy!

My eyes tell me that it says $79,500 but that seems crazy.

No shit. You could buy a Planet Fitness and use the lunk alarm to kill the previous owner AND,,,,have $ left over for legal defense for 80 g’s!!!

I’m thinking it says 795$. Still too much. Probably get it for 500 if you bundled it with some other purchases. Lol
Just looked and saw one on ebay for $1800, so maybe it is $795. But yeah, they'd probably let it go for $500. No telling how long it's been there.

Really cool. Thanks for sharing. I love hitting up those antique type stores.
That would make quite a convo piece alright and put all those Peloton's to shame.
If the gauge still works that's a good thing too.
@Millard I’m just seeing this now and trust you’re completely healed up? Looks like you got off easy, comparatively. Was it a low speed crash?
Yes! It took almost 2 months for the swelling to completely go away -- and about the same amount of time to recover my confidence taking corners. It was a moderate speed crash on flat. No aggressive lines or anything. It took me by surprise.
I have to admit that I was a little concerned for a few weeks afterwards. My doctor assured me that it was just a hematoma (albeit more serious than any I've previously experience) and the ultrasound confirmed. But my leg remained deformed for so long! At its worst, the circumference increased over 2-1/2 inches.
Fortunately, I am completely healed now.
Sure looked nasty before and the bruising all gone now? With something that large, it would take some time for all that blood trapped to be re-absorbed by the body. I had something like that once ages ago and almost as nasty.
The low(er) speed crashes tend to cause more lasting injury. I’ve had those before but the majority of my injuries have been abrasions/burns due to higher speed crashes. If you could see my knees and elbows... they’d tell some stories.
