...and it would seem that I need surgery. Inside my SKULL.
No, I don't have a brain tumor or anything, but they're going to need to poke some holes in my sinuses and reconstruct my orbital floor and shit.
This will mean no bike riding for a while.
I need somebody to take over the ride-leading and ride-scouting duties for the Toy Ride. I'll still handle making the spoke cards and distributing them at the start point. Somebody? Pls? Plsssss?
Sorry about all this.

By the way, in case anybody didn't know, I'm talking about the South Sidazz route for the Toy Ride, beginning in downtown Long Beach (actually, if you take over the ride-leading job, you can start it wherever the hell you want, but I recommend downtown LB).
K, the Hassle Race is still on! The date for surgery isn't set yet, but there's no way it will be the day after tomorrow.

sounds like you have nasal polyps and youre gonna get a lavage (sp?). you will cough up alot of blood for a few hours post op but will be fine a few days later.

So what you are saying is, you're getting a nose job. How vein. And you always wear a bandana!
Seriously though. I know its gonna suck and i hope you have a quick recovery and get back to riding. Drinking boxed wine isn't the same without you.

Allan to the rescue! Basically, I won't be able to ride a bike at all, so your job would be to lead the ride and scout the route. Actually, if the meeting point ends up being anywhere near last year's, you can just use last year's route, which should still be available somewhere in the archives of this board. Maybe scout it just to make sure there are no evil railroad tracks. In fact, if the meeting place gets confirmed in the next few days, I may still be able to scout the route this weekend.
Sound like something you want to do? As I said, I'll still make the spoke cards even if I have to wear a pirate eyepatch to do so (the oculoplastic specialist tells me that I'll have double vision for a while).

No, Dr. Hume, not nasal polyps. Negative pressure in the maxillary sinus, causing bowing of the orbital floor. Antrostomy + orbital floor reconstruction using some kind of mesh. Whee!

damn PC, hope you have a speedy recovery.

Le PC,
I am here wishing you the speediest of recoveries.
Don't let 'em poke around too much in there ... especially not near your abnormally large "this is fucking bullshit and i'm not going to sit around and let you act like its not" gland (that's our favorite part).

I wanna see the spoke card for that ride!!!
Hey PC what hospital are you going to? How long will you be there?
Is it a super secret Hollywood star thing, or can we visit?
Wait, that might not be such a good idea.
Hope it all goes well and you are positively pressurized soon.

If I get that particular night off, put me on the volunteer list and give me a route.
I've always wanted to be the "foreigner" leading the "locals".
