Day 200 - Contrast

South Berwick, ME

I was up and around today, I believe that taking it easy yesterday, elevating and icing my ankle helped a lot. I have something like 2 Gel Casts, a super-special plastic temp cast, and a bunch of ankle supports. My left ankle was cinched up in a gel cast all day and I was able to finish the bike, do a dump run (with the kid's help), and even mow the lawn. Turns out I didn't actually need to replace my brake pads, but I did anyway. The cylinders were so gummed up, they wouldn't go back. Hopefully I have cleaned them up enough, the front wheel was spinning nicely after I mounted it. I permanently mounted my Stebel air horn, not where I'd expected to put it though. Turns out I didn't need to remove all the Tupperware after all, I could have made due with leaving it on. It only takes about 15 mins tops to button it back up, so no big deal. While the bike was up on the centerstand, I sat on it (it was running while I checked the temperature) and found that I can't actually shift up yet. We'll see tomorrow. I wish I had a cane, then I might look like that House MD character. Last time I sprained my ankle, I actually had a cane that I took with me on my bike (previous bike) and was told I look like House MD (I don't watch the show).
