Almost ready to come home
« on: July 18, 2008, 12:09:48 PM »
long and short, I crashed, yet again. Resulting in many broken bones. I have been in hospital and rehab since June 16th, but should be going home sometime early next week after a second surgery on my ankle (nearly crushed).

I'll cease and desist with street riding for the immediate and possibly distant future, but may try to ride offroad depending on how things go.

yes the nurses are all hot, but married(dang it). The drugs are good and the food is edible(possibly because of the drugs).




Crashmaster Mac rides (a wheelchair) again!!!

Its been awhile, I lost the link to the new improved site and was wallowing around on the welcome screen for the past month or so.


Updates:
I am back at work today. Hooray or bleah, depending on your viewpoint. Hooray, I'll be making money again, but bleah because I have to actually work to get it.


The DRz was destroyed. being literally run over by a chevy malibu will do that.

I sustained many broken bones, right humerous near the shoulder, right femur, right tibia and fibula, right ankle, and one metacarpal on my left hand.

I'm healing well and the pain is minimal except for the occasional sharp pain in the shoulder or knee.

I just have to share this, 'cause it's true and references one of Mac's crashes. My secretary goes to the post office and sees a guy with a deal's gap t-shirt and asks me if I know anything about it. I show her killboy.com on the internet, and tell her, yes, bike on the front page of the website is my friend Mac, whom also made Motorcyclist mag. Yup, I know all about Deal's Gap.

A brief update.
 I am back at work, but with lifting restrictions. I see my Dr on thus this week, I'm hoping he'll let me start walking a bit.
 Otherwise all is generally well, no major pain anymore and all but one wound has completely healed.

Excellent news...

Maybe this guy can fabricate a roll cage for your next bike:

I don't think that would have helped stop a rampaging chevy mailbu ;D
