I did off-road level-3 stuff, and I wound up on my side. I bruised my ribs. Not broken, not fractured. Just bruised. Or at least I think so. I\u2019m not going to get an X-ray to find out. I can breathe. It\u2019s a little hard to play clarinet, but I can do it. I think I\u2019ll be OK in a month or so.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m through with misadventure traveling. I need to remember that. I shouted \u201cI fell, Teddy!\u201d but my son was far ahead of me, as was the guide. Mexico &#8212; do your own thing. Also, I couldn\u2019t yell too loudly because I had the wind\u00a0 knocked out of me. It could have been worse, yes, I know. I was wearing a puffy-down jacket, which made for good padding.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #993366;\"><strong>My cousin<\/strong><\/span> Brian is a daredevil. I\u2019ve never been a daredevil. Also, Brian is 10 years younger than me. I should cool it. I will. No more white-water rafting, zip-lining, mountain biking, moped rental, scuba, or horseback riding. In fact I\u2019m not getting out of bed again, on purpose.<\/p>\n<p>Sneezing is the worst (for sore ribs). You know what I\u2019m talking about.<\/p>\n<p>P.S. No sympathy cards, please. I&#8217;m 90 percent better.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-27343 size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/www.yiddishecup.com\/blog\/home\/yiddis6\/public_html\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bike-fall-mexico-202x300.jpg\" alt=\"bike fall mexico\" width=\"202\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.yiddishecup.com\/blog\/home\/yiddis6\/public_html\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bike-fall-mexico-202x300.jpg 202w, http:\/\/www.yiddishecup.com\/blog\/home\/yiddis6\/public_html\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bike-fall-mexico-689x1024.jpg 689w, http:\/\/www.yiddishecup.com\/blog\/home\/yiddis6\/public_html\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/bike-fall-mexico.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 202px) 100vw, 202px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I blame my cousin Brian.
