Let it heal man. You'll be on the trail sooner than you think.

  Sprained my right wrist twice, my left once, and my right ankle once. Wrap it and keep it on for at least 5 months, or you'll be not riding longer.

Hope you heal up quickly.

Make sure it is completely healed before you ride. Waiting one more week for it to heal is better then re injuring it and have to do it all over again.

If you don't have a steering stabilizer, get one.

Damn Jake that sucks. Let it heal, you younger guys are pretty pliable and you heal fast so you got that going for you.
