i hope so ...
I went through the same thing you did, didn't affect me any. And I had to learn on a new bike after my accident.
Oh, and I take 4-5 months off every year, you're a little rusty when you start, but that just means you need to practise a little and take it easy at first.
The biggest problem with having seasons is that your most recent memory when you first start riding again is of you at the end of the last season, when you were at your peak with the most constant practise. It makes it really tough to ski, because you remember yourself shooting through tree runs and bombing down the moguls, and you get back out there and you're all weak kneed and crappy
ya, so i'll just take it easy for the first couple of hours when i get back on the bike...
one of my friends said that if my arm stays in the cast for too long, i'm gonna need "physical therapy" when i take it out.....is that true or is that just BS....?
P.S. i called my doctors office today and they said that it's just BS....well, not the doctor, the assistant who btw is very hot....i guess she knows what shes talking about since she works there but i thought it wouldn't hurt to get a second opinion from you guys
.....anyone?

You may not need "real" physical therapy, but you will need to work hard at regaining both flexibility and strength in that imobilized arm.
I was in a cast/wrist brace for almost 5 months after my wreck in July '04. I still do not have full range of motion in my injured wrist, but it hasn't seriously effected use of the arm. If I'd pushed physical therapy as soon as I was given the green light, I'm sure that I'd be 100%. (A PT will push you far harder than you're likely to push yourself. Something to consider.) I have regrets about it now, but I'm not a concert pianist or anything so I deal with it.

If that is the case, I bet that was how he broke his arm in the first place.
I heard that cats have the tightest um...orifice.... in the animal kingdom.
