Hope insurance and police report treat ya right and you heal fast! Break out the Percoset brother!

Damn Nano! I still can't believe it. Glad to hear you aren't too fuckered up.
Are there any big, black, ugly birds circling your house?

...oh yeah...i've face planted a few times on soft stuff off-road...single-track wheel grab on grass and powdery dirt/sand...no damage to me or bike...it was actually 'fun'...this was the first time ever since i began riding in 1975 that i've been struck while riding my motorcycle...

Pretty terrifying feeling, eh? In a way, I'm lucky in that I don't have any memory of 'the big one'. Or the week after...

Yeow. Of all the rotten luck, Wormy.
I popped my cherry this weekend at the track - had a race bike for nearyly a year and never wrecked it - broke it in this weekend at Barber, though. But I wasn't hurt.
Shit. Dude - that sucks.

Ouch!!!!!... How's the old coconut? Having just gone through this with my girlfriend and her get off on the Raptor at 75 mph... 3rd degree clavical seperation and concussion! I know you must be movin' kinda slow. Hang in there bud it will heal but maybe a little slower at your AGE!

...my fresh-motored 11-mile 10r would make for a great track bike if it weren't for that huge dent on the right frame spar, sheared off handlebars, sheared off right fork leg, smashed radiator...and everything else...

...the coconuts fine, thank you ...i'm actually moving much better than five days ago...shoulder still very stiff and throbs (ooooh....if it were about another part of my anatomy )...i am very concerned about my gun hand, though....i can't close my fractured finger into my palm yet...and it feels less articulable than five days ago...scary...

...yeah, bro...as busy as that area gets with huge cement-mixer trucks and general traffic...lots of business drive-ways and its right off the I-15...they just recently installed a traffic signal in the area to moderate traffic, otherwise vehicles just come barreling through there even though its posted at 45mph...so i had bad luck and good luck that morning...and i'll pass on the fuzzhat, ok?...but higher wattage bulbs for sure (btw, as per my practice, i had the high beams on)

...yeah...at least....maybe up to or beyond eight weeks until i regain pre-collision use, strength, and dexterity of my broken body parts...man, that sucks...it also means my dog gets to stay home...and he HATES that...and that pisses me off even more...

...that'd be nice, but a bunch of the other deputies are scared of him and i swear that he keys on stuff like that just to freak them out...my dog doesn't telegraph much of his protective intentions...he's just on you like stink on shit ...i wouldn't be able to react fast enough or be strong enough to call/pull him off...work is work for the dude even when he's just freaking you out ...
