From what I understand they are not just for those who got into a wreck and broke bones or were hospitalized because of the wreck, but got back on the bike and are still riding. Definitely not something I wanted to "earn" but I appreciated the gesture the lady made.

Here's a pic of the patch like she gave me.

I need to get that. 1967, head on with a left turning Oldsmobile. totaled the Knuckle & messed up the Olds pretty good too. A week in the hospital & a lifetime of pain.. especially when it rains. Got another bike as soon as the foot healed enough to let me kick one over.
