Upgrade on hold.... Probably forever
Sunday the wife and I were out for a slow put through southern Wisconsin when a 19 year old kid decided to blow a stop sign and try to kill us..... Bride and I got banged up pretty good, but can't complain from hitting a car that came out of no where... Bike I think is headed for the parts bin..

Good thing you and the wife got out of it alive. I ride all over southern Wisconsin and it seems to be getting worse for people blowing thru stop signs, some areas worse then others. Hopefully you'll be getting back into riding.

I recently was involved in accident too, take your time, heal and get ready to get back out on the road!

glad you made it out safe. There will always be another project as long as you are still among the breathing.
I almost got clipped 2x when riding home from work the other day. One was a big cargo truck who looked at me and then turned on his turn signal and starting merging while i was right next to him, the other a lady looking down and didn't see us stopping. I was ready to do some lane splitting when she swerved out into the emergency lane all locked up. It's a scary place sometimes with these stupid cagers.
